Two student orgs are receiving this year’s honor for providing students with a space to explore shared interests and finding a unique community at UNI. Congratulations, @uni_fishing and @mtsociety_uni!

Congratulations to @UNI_WiB for making an impact in the greater Iowa community. The group created a one-day conference aimed at developing leadership skills among high school students, especially young women.

Congratulations to the Muslim Students Association! The group created a campus-wide event to challenge students, faculty and staff to wear the hijab for a day to simulate the experience of those who wear the hijab daily. The program helped provide a safe space for education.
