individual instances of civic engagement, or for a distinguished record of activities. Civic engagement may take place at the local, regional, national, or global levels, but must include a significant interface with/service to the non-university public (this
is not an award for university service). While such engagement may involve significant visibility, it may also take form in behind-the-scenes work that is vital to civil society. The awardee receives formal recognition of her or his achievement by the College.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
