Leadership Awards Announced
Aiken, SC (06/01/2020) — The University of South Carolina Aiken virtually announced the annual Student Life Leadership Award winners, which include students, faculty and staff.
"Congratulations to all the nominees and winners of the leadership awards presented each spring by student life," said Christian Medders, assistant director of student life.
