Service Learning/Civic Engagement (SLICE)

The Service Learning and Civic Engagement Recognition Program was created to recognize individuals and groups, whose excellence in service has gone above and beyond the standards set by the SL/CE Committee.

The SL/CE Committee met in the fall of 2011 to discuss the basic foundation of the recognition awards. During the course of that meeting, committee members brainstormed ideas of how many awards would be given, the award titles, and criteria of which the awards would be based. In the spring of 2012, the committee met again and finalized the above mentioned ideas.
