The MASC Council of Excellence Award Program has been designed to recognize and reward the achievements of outstanding student councils or student government organizations on our state association. This award program has been created as a way of providing encouragement and support to student councils, as well as to provide standards of effective student leadership.

All awards will be given during the closing ceremonies of the Annual Spring Conference.
