Each year, the Community Achievement Awards recognize a SIG, professional, or student chapter’s outstanding accomplishments in achieving the Society’s goals through a wide range of programs and activities. Previously, communities were awarded Community of Distinction, Excellence, and Merit in descending order of prestige; this year, the levels were updated to Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Bronze. The Community of the Year is chosen from among the Platinum Communities (previously Communities of Distinction) and announced at the STC Summit.
This year’s Community of the Year is the Rochester Chapter. The citation reads: For your remarkable work in recognizing members through your various chapter-level awards, impressive blend of educational and social activities, and your extensive student outreach.
Congratulations to the Rochester Chapter and its members!
