The Corporation for National and Community Service is pleased to announce that we will accept applications for the 2010 President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll starting on September 27, 2010.   Please note that there are significant changes to this year’s competition.  The Honor Roll is shifting the emphasis from outputs, such as numbers of service participants, to community outcomes, such as the changes that result from the service activities.  The 2010 competition seeks to celebrate institutions with best-practice service programs.  Characteristics of such programs include using evaluation and assessment, developing collaborative community partnerships, and addressing significant community needs.  Applicants should demonstrate results that are measurable and supported by credible evidence.

The President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll was created in 2006 to annually recognize the combined exemplary community service efforts of higher education institutions’ students, faculties, and staffs.  Institutions that make the Honor Roll are rewarded with enriched learning, stronger alumni and community ties, public awareness of community contributions, and the ability to attract first-rate faculty and students.
