Halls Awards Nominations are open!

The Halls Awards are back!

Every year our students do an amazing job and dedicate their time and energy to creating a fun, welcoming and inclusive environment for their fellow residents. Residence Life Assistants and Social Committees work extremely hard to encourage community and engagement within their halls, and to help to make students feel welcome throughout the year. The Halls Awards are a celebration of all the remarkable students living in halls of residence who are making a difference in their halls communities, and this year we’re giving out more awards than ever before!
