Awards are granted each academic year to be used toward the purchase of books or supplies and will be presented at the Chancellor’s Staff Recognition Ceremony. The money is from donations made by staff members. In the past, the student winners have received $500.

Eligibility requirements:

• A non-freshman enrolled as an undergraduate at the University of Pittsburgh

• In good standing with at least a 2.0 grade point average

• Have a parent/guardian who is a regular full-time or regular part-time staff member at the University of Pittsburgh
