This distinction recognizes the students, faculty, staff, and alumni of Saint Mary’s University who help to build a culture of service and civic engagement in the nation.
The goals of the Honor Roll award program are to increase the use of service-learning in higher education, the number of college students participating in community service, and public awareness of the service contributions of colleges and students to their community and the nation. The program is used as a tool to identify and promote exemplary higher education community service programs and practices, such as those at Saint Mary’s.
