Award and Recognition Program
The Triple Helix recognizes that many of our staff across the nation work tirelessly to make this organization the success that it has become. This program is established to honor the significant contributions of The Triple Helix’s members and to publicly recognize these individuals and chapters for their outstanding accomplishments. It recognizes members for their dedication and achievements, and it also awards chapters that have made significant impacts at their campus and who serve as a model organization worthy of emulation.
Below is a brief summary of the program. Please explore the links on this page to learn more details about the process and to access the nomination forms.
There is no limit to the number of chapters or individuals who may win a given award. While every individual or chapter who deserves an award will receive one, the standards by which we evaluate excellence and achievement will be held high.
