The Center for Leadership and Service recognizes students in a variety of ways. Awards and scholarships are granted to individuals and student organizations at the end of each academic year. The Center hosts the annual invitation-only Leadership & Service Accolades Banquet to recognize student participants and present select awards. The term “accolades” refers to a ceremonial embrace, and we host this event as an expression of our gratitude and pride for our student leaders.

The Student Organization Service Award recognizes the CSU student organization with the highest participation in volunteer/service programs benefiting the community.
