Each Spring, Valparaiso University recognizes one student as deserving the Judith Peters Aprender ayudando Spanish Service Award. Professor Emerita Peters, who taught Spanish at the University and developed the International Service major, has devoted her professional and personal life to using the Spanish language as a means of helping others. The Spanish phrase Aprender ayudando (“to learn by helping”) reflects the University’s belief that education and service to society are inextricably linked. To honor these ideals and publicly recognize those students who have taken them to heart by using their study of the Spanish language and its associated cultures in the service of humanity, we ask that you nominate students who best embody the spirit of this award.
Please return completed nomination forms to Professor Debra Ames, Meier 117. |
