- University of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥: For the second straight year, the University of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ has earned the Excellence in Service Award from Operation Hat Trick, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting wounded U.S. combat veterans. The university was recognized for its efforts to support military service members and veterans through the sale of hats, shirts and other gear featuring military-style designs. In honor of that effort, Operation Hat Trick has donated $12,000 to the ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ Fisher House on behalf of the university. The Fisher House Foundation provides homes across the country, where families of military members and veterans can stay free of charge while a loved one is in the hospital. The UA sold more than $100,000 in Operation Hat Trick merchandise since November. The effort included a photo shoot with student veterans to promote the products. Royalties from those sales went to Operation Hat Trick, which distributes the money to charities on behalf of the participating schools.
