Nominations of Students Sought for Alexis Arguello Service Award

The Alexis "Ali" Arguello Service Award will be awarded to a senior student majoring in Supply Chain Management.

She was a senior studying Supply Chain Management in the Sam M. Walton College of Business when she passed away suddenly in 2016. Arguello was heavily involved in helping others during her lifetime with a variety of service related initiatives primarily involving volunteering and assisting others in need.

The criteria for this award are to be a graduating senior majoring in supply chain management (graduation of summer 2017, fall 2017, or anticipated in spring 2018) who has provided outstanding service to others. Faculty, staff, and students will be able to nominate students for this award. Self-nominations are acceptable.
