Nominations sought for year-end awards
Members of the Rice community are invited to submit nominations of qualified candidates for any of following awards:
• The Rice University Service Award, given in memory of Dean of Students Hugh Scott Cameron, honors current or former students who have rendered exemplary service to the student body.
• The Sallyport Award, presented by the Association of Rice Alumni, recognizes an undergraduate-degree candidate and a graduate-degree candidate who have made contributions to the Rice community above their individual college and who may not otherwise be recognized.
• The Outstanding Senior Awards honor graduating seniors who have contributed excellence in service, performance, dedication and character at Rice University.
• The Morty Rich Scholarship recognizes a student who has distinguished himself/herself through commitment and service to Rice or to the greater community. The successful candidates will have recognized a need in the community, developed objectives and implemented or established programs that would benefit the community and will realize no personal gain for these efforts.
• The Alan Grob Prize honors a Rice undergraduate who, through service to the larger community, has demonstrated devotion to the needs and interests of the economically and culturally disadvantaged.
The awards nomination form is available at <www.ruf.rice.edu/~stact/awards.html> or can be picked up at the Office of Student Activities in the Rice Memorial Center Cloisters. The deadline for nominations is 5 p.m. Friday, March 25.
