Awards Committee

The Awards Committee nominates honorary degree candidates and the Berea College Service Awards candidates for approval by the College Faculty Assembly and General Assembly Delegates, respectively. The Committee solicits suggestions for honorary degrees and service awards from the College community. The Assemblies may choose to have other awards determined by this committee.

The Awards Committee consists of two elected members of the College Faculty Assembly, two elected members of the General Assembly who are not members of the College Faculty Assembly, one member of the Board of Trustees as appointed by the Board, one student member as appointed by the Student Government Association, and three non-voting ex officio members: a representative of the President's Office, the Associate Provost, and a representative of the Center for Excellence in Learning through Service (CELTS). College Faculty Assembly and General Assembly members of the Awards Committee will be elected by the General Assembly Delegates and will serve staggered three-year terms.
