Lete, Stefancic receive 2024 President’s Community Service Awards

Two members of the Boise State University community were honored by Boise State University President Dr. Marlene Tromp with the 2024 President's Community Service Award. The award provides the campus community an opportunity to celebrate and honor individuals, or groups of faculty, staff or students, who serve the community in extraordinary ways.

Nere Lete

Nere Lete, professor in the Department of World Languages, is helping to preserve Basque language, culture and history. Over the course of nearly three decades, Lete has been exceedingly generous in dedicating time for service to the department, the college, the university, the community and the profession. She works within the university to educate others about Basque language, culture and history, and actively works beyond the university to preserve and promote Basque language, culture and history.

Mike Stefancic

Experiential and Career Learning Coordinator Mike Stefancic worked with Idaho Partners for Good to facilitate a workshop to help community members understand how to partner with the university and successfully support student volunteers. He took on the challenge of starting their first grant relations team and the selection process. Stefancic is careful about developing and nurturing connections and turns them into relationships that support the good he wants to do, both personally and professionally, and he is committed to making meaningful and fulfilling connections for Boise State students.
