Student Leadership Nominations

Every year Eleanor Roosevelt College recognizes the students, programs and organizations that make our college the amazing place it is!  Please take a few moments to nominate an ERC Student, a Program/Event, and/or an ERC Org for being extra awesome this past academic year!

You are permitted and ENCOURAGED to nominate MORE THAN ONE Student, Program, or Organization – so PLEASE DO!  Simply fill out the form found below for each person, program or organization you would like to nominate.  If you are submitting multiple nominations please simply refresh this page and the form should reappear to allow you to complete another nomination.

These awards are presented to the Student Organizations and the Individual Students at our yearly ERC Recognition Event held in May.

The awards are given based on student nominations only – if you don’t take the time to nominate programs, organizations, and students then we won’t be able to recognize them.  Please take the time to fill out at least one nomination form.
