B-Week Awards Nominations Open!
Great work shouldn't go unnoticed. The B-Week Awards celebrate the innovators, the inclusion-makers, and the leaders who empower everyone around them. If you know someone (or a team!) making waves in leadership or community building practices, we want to hear about them.
It only takes a few minutes to submit a nomination and help a colleague get the recognition they deserve. Nominate your peers and student organizations for B-Week Awards.
