Leadership Awards

Student Leadership and Service Awards
Each year a number of student leaders are recognized for their work in campus organizations or in the surrounding community. Student recipients must be juniors or seniors and are nominated by their peers, the faculty, or the staff and selected by the Student Leadership and Service Awards Committee.

Mount Holyoke College Campus Store Community Service Award
This award is presented to a Mount Holyoke student “whose involvement in the community beyond the campus has consistently demonstrated personal commitment and sensitivity to human need, reflective of the College’s tradition of excellence and service.” The intent of the award is to discover and honor students who have made significant contributions through their work outside the immediate Mount Holyoke community.

Maurice L. Rabbino Award
Established in 1977–1978 by Irma Rabbino ’53 in honor of her father, this award recognizes a student who has made an especially significant contribution to the life of Mount Holyoke College.

The Helen Warren Smith Award
This award was established in 1979 to honor a member of the class of 1908. It is presented to a student whose interest and involvement in and service to the Mount Holyoke community have been outstanding.

The Frances Harriet Williams Award
This award, established in honor of Frances Harriet Williams ’19, is presented annually to an African American, Asian American, Hispanic American, or Native American junior or senior student at Mount Holyoke College who best exemplifies the ideals to which Miss Williams’s life was dedicated—the capacity to create a dream, the passion to pursue it, and the ability to soar with that goal, whether it be academic excellence, social justice, or service to others.

Karen Snyder Sullivan Memorial Travel Award
This award offers a Mount Holyoke undergraduate the opportunity to increase her awareness and understanding of the international community by travel outside the United States and Canada. Recipients are those who have exhibited a keen interest in exploring and whose travel experience will further their academic, professional, and personal goals. The award is sponsored by Craig Sullivan, husband of the late Karen Snyder Sullivan ’68.
