Student Presenters! Please review the Thelma Adamson Prize Guidelines if
you wish to be considered for the 2010 prize.
Thelma Adamson Prize Guidelines:
1) The Call for Papers should include a place for students to indicate that they want to be considered for the prize; a student will not be considered unless the registration form so indicates.
2) Students should be current student members of SEM to qualify for the prize.
3) Students should be in good standing at a college or university in the Northwest region to qualify for the prize.
4) Students who indicate that they wish to be considered for the prize should be notified that they need to submit 3 copies of their paper and supporting audio-visual material at the registration table before the first session of the meeting. The paper submitted must be that which is actually delivered at the conference and not an expanded version.
5) The evaluation committee will consist of the chapter president and two other faculty members, with at least two institutions represented.
6) The announcement of the prize winner should take place as soon after the meeting as possible. The chapter president should first notify all contending students of the results. The chapter secretary should then be notified in order to include this information in her/his official report to the SEM Newsletter and officers. The results should also be transmitted to the membership on the SEMNW email list.
