Update, November 17, 2014: The NIRSA Foundation has extended the deadline for student and professional scholarship applications and professional travel stipend applications. Applications are now due by 5:00pm Pacific Time on Monday, November 17, 2014.

NIRSA members bring tremendous value to the collegiate recreation profession—whether they’re professional members inspiring passion in students, student members who go above and beyond, or institutional members finding creative solutions.

We love celebrating our members’ achievements and simultaneously raising the standard for excellence across the entire collegiate recreation profession—and we know NIRSA members take pride in recognizing the wonderful work of their colleagues too.

So we’re asking for your help.

Submit an application detailing your team’s efforts and accomplishments for a Creative Excellence Award. They could be recognized at the 2015 NIRSA Annual Conference & Recreational Sports Expo being held in Grapevine, Texas from March 30–April 2!

The winning campaigns are featured on the NIRSA website.

The NIRSA Creative Excellence Awards recognize NIRSA members’ outstanding endeavors and accomplishments in marketing, and are conferred in nine categories: Comprehensive Brochure and Facility Publication, Integrated Marketing Campaign, Sustainable Marketing, Programming Publication, Large Scale Signage, Audiovisual Promotion, Website, Student Publication, and Student Digital Presentation.

All applications are due Monday, November 3. Eligibility guidelines and selection criteria, as well as a list of past recipients, can be found on the NIRSA website.
