Oklahoma State University students recognized for service
Tuesday, June 6, 2017
CORD recognizes outstanding Cowboy graduates with honorary orange cords for students to wear at graduation to distinguish them for their outstanding community service during their time on campus. Sponsored by OSU’s Service-Learning Volunteer Center and the Office of the Vice President of Student Affairs, CORD recipients must successfully complete more than 400 volunteer service hours as an undergraduate or 300 service hours as a graduate student.
“Helping others and showing love to them through acts of service has helped me grow throughout high school and college,” said Abigail Hood, CORD recipient and management major. “Patience, love, humility and leadership have all been attributes that I’ve been able to build upon while completing this program.”
The Service-Learning Volunteer Center has promoted leadership for Oklahoma State University students since 1984, providing service-learning activities, research opportunities and connections with society to promote the general welfare of its citizens. This is the eighth year of the CORD program.
The 150 CORD recipients recognized this year included six graduate students and 144 undergraduates who volunteered for a total of 77,782 service hours during their time at OSU. Hours are recorded on CampusLink, which is administered and monitored through the Department of Campus Life at OSU.
