Awards & Recognition Committee

Recognition is an important component to member engagement, recruitment, and retention. Each year, CACUSS honours and provides recognition to exemplary higher education and student affairs leaders, students, programs, and initiatives for contributions and impact on the field. Recipients of CACUSS Awards are a lens on the important and diverse work CACUSS Members undertake. The honourees serve the field and enhance the lives of their campus communities. These are normally awarded during the Annual Conference or during a virtual Awards Ceremony.

The Awards Committee coordinates CACUSS’ annual awards & conference bursary process to recognize outstanding professionals, scholars, programs, mentors, colleagues, and graduate students through our Association-wide awards. If you have any questions about serving on the Awards Committee, please email engage@cacuss.ca.
