Thriving Together Award
To support our ongoing commitment to fostering a campus culture where everyone can thrive, the Thriving Together Presidential Award recognizes Rollins community members for their exceptional dedication, achievements, and commitment to building a community where all individuals can achieve, grow, gain knowledge, and flourish in academics, the workforce, and the community.
Who is Eligible?
All Rollins faculty, staff, and students are eligible to be nominated for the award, with the exception of individuals whose principal job responsibilities at the College are directly committed to advancing this work, such as those who serve on the Core Leadership Team. Recipients of this award in the past five years are not eligible either.
