Though awards are usually bestowed on individuals, service is by its nature a collaborative effort. At Syracuse University, the Chancellor s Award for Public Service is made to reflect this. The award was initiated in 1992 to recognize specific residence halls for their contributions to the community. Since then, it has grown in scope to also recognize outstanding projects and creativity in community service and service-learning.
