Hampshire thrives on the passion, energy, dedication, and determination of our students, and the annual Ingenuity Awards honors those students who have gone above and beyond in their contributions to the Hampshire community. Since 2004, 300 student leaders have received Ingenuity Awards for their work.

Students are nominated through letters of recommendation, submitted to campus leadership and activities by emailing ptinto@hampshire.edu. Any currently enrolled student can be nominated for an award; however, students who have received the award in 2013 will not be able to receive one again until 2015 to allow other students the opportunity to be recognized. Hampshire staff, faculty, and students can submit nominations; students cannot nominate themselves.

For more information on nominating a student, review our guidelines on letters of recommendation and general FAQs.
