The Sidney prize recognizes journalists whose stories successfully expose social and economic injustice, leading to meaningful public policy changes. It was named in memory of Sidney Hillman, former President of Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America – an predecessor union for Unite Here and Workers United SEIU. Since 1950, its foundation has awarded over $900,000. Members include former leaders from both unions along with left-leaning celebrities like Danny Glover.
Additionally, the University offers numerous undergraduate prizes. Some require applications, while others don’t; all awards appear on students’ transcripts and are celebrated at an awards ceremony annually. Some prizes are specifically designated “signature prizes” of English; others recognize academic excellence across disciplines.
