the opportunity to serve in a community agency during the fifteen-week
semester; mentor an at-risk child at a local elementary school weekly; and go
on retreats and participate in social functions. Students enroll in a leadership
seminar for academic credit each semester of their college career and in campus
organizations such as Student Government Association, the Resident Hall Association
and the Student Activities Council.
Recipients are competitively selected on the basis of demonstrated
potential in the areas of leadership, service, academics, and commitment to the
development of self and others. While there is no strict requirement in terms
of SAT scores, students are expected to have at least a 3.0 average in high
school and to show evidence that they can maintain a 3.0 average in college.
