Student Organization Awards

At one time, UNH had four separate, yet inter-connected, diversity, equity and inclusion-focused university commissions: The President's Commission on the Status of GLBT Issues, The President's Commission on the Status of People of Color, The President's Commission on the Status of People with Disabilities, and The President's Commission on the Status of Women. Each commission would seek to further improve inclusion across the university for students, faculty and staff through various efforts and initiatives. The four commissions have since been unified as The University Commission on Community, Equity and Diversity (UCCED).? The Advocacy & Action award represents the unification of these historic recognitions. It celebrates UNH community members who embody our university's diversity statement. Those selected for this award have acted as consistent advocates for diversity, equity and inclusion throughout their time at UNH.
