The Judson Leadership Center is now taking nominations for the 2026 AKO Leadership Awards!
These awards are generously endowed by the Alpha Kappa Omicron sisterhood of Alfred University. Alpha Kappa Omicron was an Alfred University sorority established in 1944 as interfaith and interracial, with the ideals of truth understanding and sisterhood in equity. These awards have been created to carry on their legacy. Each year, two students receive these awards. The descriptions and criteria of each award are below. Please note the eligibility is based on time at the University, not just by credit (i.e., a first-year student with enough credits to be listed as a sophomore cannot apply.)
To nominate a student, please send their full name & a brief statement on why you wish to nominate them (and for which award) to Abby Hurley at [email protected]. The award descriptions are below.
AKO Achievement Award - Honors a sophomore (second-year student) who has demonstrated excellent personal academic leadership. This award comes with a $250 honorarium. To be eligible for this award the student must be:
* Sophomore earned status (non-transfer student)
* 3.25 GPA
* Be involved in at least one organization or club that is related to academics
AKO Social Change Leadership Award - Honors a junior (third-year student) who has demonstrated a commitment to change-for-the-good leadership and embodies the values of integrity, collaboration, civility, common purpose, and citizenship. This award comes with a $500 honorarium. To be eligible for this award students must be:
* Junior earned status
* 3.0 GPA
* Demonstrated leadership in a student club or an organization that is service-related

Alfred Ceramic Art Museum presents upcoming Spring 2026 Exhibition:
"Sharif Bey: Autoethnography"
February 12th to July 19th, 2026
Opening Reception: Thursday, February 12, 5-7pm
Sharif Bey is an ambidextrous user of clay, as comfortable making pots as he is making poetic figures, daunting wall pieces or the gargantuan necklaces of his "Adornment" series. His work can be read at many levels - as an exploration of the multifaceted "ethnos" of his life; as an investigation of how meanings can shift according to context; as a ceramic practice that refuses to remain fixed in any one category, celebrating instead the endless possibilities of the medium. This show presents the diversity of Bey's practice, which nevertheless retains a united, and utterly unique, style and vision.

Join your friends and colleagues for the Social Justice Teaching Collective Winterval Festivus before the holiday luncheon. We'll gather at 9:30 AM on Tuesday, December 16th in Herrick Library's Bookend Lounge, and have some light refreshments while we talk about things that connect our teaching to social justice. I'll provide information about the Social Justice Studies program for new folks, and there will be space and time for folks to collaborate on how to incorporate social justice elements into their existing courses or how to create new courses that include social justice themes. Anyone interested in getting a course included as an elective for the minor is invited to bring your ideas and questions!

Because the University will be closed for two weeks over the Holidays, we will not be releasing orders in the Saxon Shop for quick turn suppliers like Amazon, WB Mason, or Staples after Friday, December 12th. There will not be anybody here to receive orders during the break, and we don't want to risk having them dropped off outside of buildings.
