Please note:
Because of the similarity of some awards, questions regarding the most appropriate award for a particular nominee may arise. You may want to nominate an individual for a second award. In such cases, please tailor the nomination materials for each award.
Unsuccessful nominations from last year may be resubmitted for the same award if you believe that your candidate is best qualified for this year's competition. In such cases, information that is no longer current should be updated.
Please contact Marla Applebaum, Deputy Provost's Office, 882-6597, if you have any questions about the campus's award process.
