Nominations will be accepted until March 10.
Student nominees will have shown exemplary commitment to international education through campus/community involvement, academic involvement and leadership experience. Students must be planning to graduate in May or August 2017.

Faculty from all disciplines are encouraged to apply. Assistance with flight arrangements is available from the Office of International Education.
