Alfred H. Joslin Award

Student Awards

The Joslin Award is presented each year to a select group of seniors whose contributions to the quality of student life at Brown are truly exemplary. Joslin recipients represent the very best of Brown in the areas of character, involvement and impact.

The Joslin Award is presented to senior undergraduate students who have contributed in a significant way to the quality of student life at Brown. Award winners generally demonstrate a wide breadth of involvement during their campus years as well as substantial depth in one or more areas. Through their leadership and involvement, they have not only enhanced their own liberal education, they have also provided services, programs and other opportunities for involvement to their peers, thus enhancing the learning environment for all students.

Recipients will be honored at the Commencement and Reunion Weekend's Jin-Joslin-Joukowsky Award Ceremony, held in the afternoon of the opening Friday of the weekend.

Nominations

Nomination Criteria

  • In the area of character, the selection committee is interested not just in what a nominee has done but the personal qualities and attributes that model the highest ideals of leadership, citizenship and community.
  • Identify known involvements, leadership positions and noteworthy accomplishments in co-curricular activities (whether on or off campus).
  • Address the nominee’s impact on Brown (the student experience, community engagement, etc.). Aspects of impact that may aid in the committee’s evaluation include sustainability, breadth or depth of their efforts.

Nominations may be submitted via this form and are due in April. Nominees must be college seniors anticipated to graduate in the forthcoming May or December. Joslin Award nominations may be submitted by any member of the Brown community. For more information or questions, contact: campuslife-awards@brown.edu.

History of the Award

The Joslin Award is given in the name of Judge Alfred H. Joslin, a 1936 Brown graduate, a member of the Corporation from 1963-1985, and a member of the Board of Fellows. Because of this extraordinary service to the Brown community, his initial chairmanship of the Corporation Committee on Student Life and his abiding concern for the interests and welfare of undergraduates, it is fitting that this award should be designated in his honor.
