April 10, 2010 Awards Banquet - Winners Announced

A one-page electronic letter from an appropriate nominator is requested that justifies the merit of the student nominee, and lists worthy accomplishments related to the particular award. Descriptions of each award can be found at: http://academic.cahnrs.wsu.edu/awards.htm.

We encourage each department to nominate deserving students enrolled in their majors. After receiving the nomination letter, a representative from Academic Programs will notify the student about their nomination. Each student will be asked to inform Academic Programs and their department chair as to whether they accept the nomination and are willing to submit a packet.

An electronic application packet will be requested for each finalist. We are no longer requesting eleven paper packets. Department chairs are highly encouraged to provide student nominees with assistance and support so that students do not have to assume the primary burden of packet preparation.

All nominees will be acknowledged at the CAHNRS Award Banquet and award winners will be announced at this time.

Outstanding Seniors are selected from within each department for each major. Student nomination forms for outstanding seniors must be submitted to Sean McIlraith (smcilraith@wsu.edu) in Academic Programs (please see guidelines specifically for Outstanding Senior).

Nomination letters for Outstanding Seniors and the Freshman of the Year Award are not required.

If you have questions or concerns, please contact Jeanne Dahmen (509-335-9115) or Sean McIlraith (509-335-4562).
