The Results Are In: The Best of UVM 2016
The UVM BORED BEST OF UVM Awards (affectionately known to us as the ‘Bored Awards’) are an annual contest hosted by your friendly neighborhood team from the UVM BORED Calendar (in case you missed it, that’s us – yay!).
We know that UVM students have a lot of opinions on “what’s good around here”, so we thought we’d put it to the test to find out what’s the BEST OF THE BEST on our campus – from best eats to best classes and everything in between.
The Awards are a yearly way for UVM Students to give some love to some of their favorite aspects of being a part of the UVM community to shout out about what they love most about our campus.
