Council/Foundation awards

The Council/Foundation Award for service to the University is a combined award of the Binghamton University Council and the Binghamton University Foundation. 

Awards are given annually to individuals of the Binghamton University community who have served the campus with outstanding dedication and provided exemplary service and/or leadership to the University.

Recipients receive $1,000 and a certificate. Students are recognized at the President's Award Luncheon in the spring. Faculty and staff are recognized at the Excellence Awards Dinner in the fall.
