Minority Achievement Award

The President’s Commission on Ethnic Minority Issues established Minority Achievement Awards to recognize faculty, staff, students, and individual units that have made outstanding contributions to the University’s equity efforts. The awards also recognize those who have worked to improve the racial climate on the College Park Campus. Each year PCEMI presents these awards to individuals in each of several categories: (1) faculty, (2) exempt employees, (3) non-exempt employees, (4) undergraduate students, and (5) graduate students. Instructional and non-instructional units are also recognized. Nominees should be individuals or units that have made substantial contributions to the University’s goal of creating an institution of excellence through diversity.
