To be considered for this award, a student must:
- Have demonstrated efforts to promote college values during the current academic year;
- Be enrolled full-time at Macalester College;
- Be in good academic standing (minimum GPA of 2.7);
- Be in good standing with the Title IX and Nondiscrimination office, as well as the Office of Student Affairs.
