During the summer of 2008, the Office of University Life at SUNY System Administration and the Council of Community College Chief Student Affairs Officers invited nominations from every SUNY community college for programs that have made a positive impact on students and their development. Categories included: New Student/First Year Programs; Assessment; Retention; Diversity and Multicultural Programs; Sustainability; and Student Affairs and Academic Affairs Collaboration.

In the fall of 2008, a selection committee comprised of representatives from the campuses and System Administration reviewed the nominations received. Twelve nominations were submitted; three of these were selected for special recognition, and awards will be presented at the Council of Community College Chief Student Affairs Officers Conference to be held in June in Utica.

Congratulations to the award recipients listed below:

• New Student/First Year Programs - Developing an Online Advisement Preparation Option (Jamestown Community College)
