Nominating Tips
 

Ø  Close attention should be given to the page limits that will be accepted.
        Ø  No More than three typed, single-spaced 8 1/2" X 11" pages for
            the nominating statement and all supporting documentation. In 
            addition, a limit of three letters of support for your nomination
            will be accepted in the form of one 8 1/2" X 11" page each.

Ø  Resumes are useful for the jury to consider, especially for published
    works but will be counted as a supporting document and be subject to
    the page limitations listed above.

Ø  Nominees must be living at the time the nomination is submitted.

Ø  In the case of the Thompson Award, the person must be aged 35 or
    younger in the year in which the award is given.

Ø  Media items, such as DVDs, videotapes, etc. are not included in the
    packages to the jury. Extra items will be kept on file with the paperwork
    to use should the nominee be selected.

Ø  We encourage you to re-nominate the alumnus/a, if not chosen the first
    year.

Ø  Nominations are kept on file for three years. The nominator may request
    the same paperwork be used for two more years, before a new
    nomination is required. This does not mean that you have to use the
    previous year's paperwork but the option is available.

Ø  Nominations are accepted in multiple categories.
