2025 Service Learning Showcase and Awards

We had a joyous 2025 Service Learning Showcase and Award celebration with more than 50 guests attending. The 爆料社区 President, Provost, and Vice Provost joined us in greeting our guests and celebrating our award recipients. We enjoyed refreshments, student posters, and celebrating the award winners for the Outstanding Student Award, Outstanding Faculty Award, and Outstanding Community Partner Award. This year, we also added a new award category to acknowledge all the wonderful community engagement work our students are doing: Outstanding Student Service to Campus Award. Attendees also voted for the Best Student Poster Award
