The applications for several important Recognitions are due next Monday, 1 November.
- Distinguished Community Service Awards (DCSA/DSSA/DSAS)
- Jay Gould Award
- Ken Rainey Award
- Sigma Tau Chi/Alpha Sigma honorary societies
Please see the Recognition > Awards menu on www.stc.org for guidelines and applications for all of these recognition levels.
In case you missed it, there have been several big changes to the Distinguished Community Service Awards:
- For the Distinguished Chapter Service Award, Distinguished SIG Service Award, and Distinguished Service Award for Students, there is a new system for determining how many members may be nominated per community. It will be based on your Community membership as of 30 June 2010. The number of available nominations per size category is in the chart below. (Contact Diana Buttram if you don’t know your membership as of this date.)
- Another big change—in the past, the entire community administrative council was ineligible for this award. Now, only two community officers will be ineligible for the award: President and Vice President.
| Geographic Community Size as of 30 June | Number of nominees |
| 40 members or fewer | 1 |
| 41-75 members | 2 |
| 76-150 members | 2 |
| 151-300 members | 3 |
| 301-600 members | 3 |
| 601+ members | 3 |
| SIG Size as of 30 June | Number of nominees |
| 100 members or fewer | 1 |
| 100-500 members | 2 |
| 501-1000 members | 2 |
| 1000-1499 members | 3 |
| 1500+ members | 3 |
Thank you in advance for your nominations!
