Student Engagement Awards and Grants

Annual Student Engagement Award
The Student Learning and Success Committee (SLSC) sponsors the annual Student Engagement Award, which is given to one faculty member and one staff member who demonstrate extraordinary commitment, initiative, and dedication, and whose efforts are “above and beyond” in helping the college serve its students. The SLSC solicits nominations for this award via email to the campus community.

Student Engagement Grants
With funds from the Purchase College Association, the SLSC also sponsors Student Engagement Grants to support faculty initiatives that increase student engagement. Such initiatives might include taking a class on a trip to a museum exhibit or a seminar off-campus; participation with a student in a conference; or even having dinner with your class. The application form for this grant is available under Faculty Resources and Forms on the provost’s site. Please complete the application in full and allow for some turnaround time on funding decisions, which are made by the SLSC.

Student Engagement Manual for Faculty
The Student Engagement Manual for Faculty, also available under Faculty Resources and Forms, can be used as a reference for scheduling transportation, finding a venue on campus, working with Chartwells Dining Services or other auxiliary services, etc.
