| Robert L. Sigmon Service-Learning Award
Presented during the PACE Conference since 2006, the Robert L. Sigmon Service-Learning Award recognizes one faculty person on a member campus who has made significant contributions toward furthering the practice of service-learning. A committee, composed of practitioners in the service-learning field who live and work outside of North Carolina, selects the winner based on significant service-learning experience, community and student impact and institutional impact. The award is named in honor of Robert L. Sigmon, service-learning pioneer and North Carolina native. Click here for his full bio. In 2009, Mr. Sigmon donated his personal library and research to Elon University to create the Robert L. Sigmon Service-Learning Collection. The 2011 award was presented on February 9, 2011 to Dr. Della Pollock of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Pictured below is Dr. Pollock (holding the flowers).
