Ohio Northern Student Senate

In spring of 2002, the Campus Organizations Committee of Student Senate established the Student Organization of the Year Award. By creating the award, Student Senate hoped to inspire students to raise their organizations to new heights. It was named after Alice-Kay Hilderbrand, Vice President for Student Affairs (2004-2008), for her passionate and devoted support to student organizations. The Alice-Kay Hilderbrand Student Organization of the Year Award is intended to reward the outstanding student organizations at Ohio Northern University who have clearly defined their role in the professional and social development of their members, value the ideals of leadership, collaborate and outreach with and to fellow student organizations, and dedicate themselves to serving their campus and surrounding communities.

The Alice-Kay Hilderbrand Student Organization of the Year Award recognizes three organizations yearly with the distinctions of outstanding, excellence, and achievement. Framed certificates are presented to the recognized organizations, along with cash prizes. Student Senate strongly encourages all recognized and eligible organizations to apply for the 2013 Hilderbrand Award. The selection process was very competitive last year, and with the volume and quality of the activities student organizations have been involved in this year, it should be even more competitive!

This year, the cash awards are in the amount of $750, $500, and $250 for the three winning student organizations!

The Student Organization of the Year Awards will be presented at the 2013 President’s Leadership Dessert.
