Points and Badges

Be Rewarded for Your Involvement

Points and Badges are a way to show your stellar involvement on as a student organization!

By completing challenges throughout the semester, your student organization can attain different levels of Involvement Badges. These badges will appear on your group page on CONNECT as you attain them, and they also come with some special gifts at the end of the semester.

Points will also appear on the student organization leaderboard. See where you stand against other student organizations across all of campus or in your specific organization category.
