Student Awards Highlight

Each Spring semester, the College of Applied Arts hosts an annual award banquet. This provides the OWLS Department an opportunity to recognize some remarkable students each semester. 

They are nominated by the OWLS Faculty Members/Staff and reviewed and selected by the award committee. 

Students selected in Fall and Summer semesters will be invited to the award banquet the following Spring semester.
