In an effort to support and celebrate student leaders, Student Union, Washington University in St. Louis’ student government, has established a $2 million endowed fund for the Student Union Leadership Award.
Emily Chen, Student Union president, said the fund will distribute approximately 15 $5,000 undergraduate awards annually starting this spring. Student Union started the fund to recognize the hard work of student leaders, regardless of their title, she said.
