The University Career Center, at 110 Burge Union on the Kansas University campus, was selected for a National Association of Colleges and Employers’ Chevron Award for its “University Career Center-Center Court” program.

The award recognizes a college career center for a groundbreaking development in the field. The center won $1,000, a plaque to be presented at the association’s national conference and a feature article in the association’s online journal.

The center partnered with Kansas Athletics and Jayhawk Sports Marketing to market a series of videos that included the center’s services and things students should know about seeking a job.

The videos were played on the Allen Fieldhouse scoreboard, and ads featuring the URL of the center’s Web site, KUCareerHawk.com, were displayed on more than 30 LED screens throughout the arena.
