The award was established as a means for recognizing an ACDA student chapter which, through its activities, best supports the advancement of choral music.
The Outstanding Student Chapter Award is determined on the basis of the following criteria:
1. Service to chapter members through projects that directly benefit the student members in developing the insight and skills necessary for a successful choral musician.
2. Service to choral music through activities that in some way advance the field of choral music either as a direct benefit to choral musicians or to the public perception and understanding of choral music.
3. Service to the institution that enhances and strengthens choral music’s educational program on the chapter’s campus.
Caitlin Henning is the chapter president, and Dr. Janet Galván is the faculty adviser. Caitlin will accept the award at the ACDA National Conference in Chicago, Illinois in March.
