The University of Alaska Foundation announces that nominations are now being accepted for the 2003 Edith R. Bullock Prize for Excellence.

The purpose of the prize is to recognize and reward an individual who has demonstrated excellence in support of the University of Alaska. Any individual, regardless of University affiliation, is eligible for nomination. The prize carries with it a $15,000 award for the recipient. The selection committee will base its decision primarily on two criteria:

1. The extent to which the individual demonstrates a specific, definable, notable accomplishment which benefits the University (establishment of an academic or administrative program, the development of a course, the successful completion of a project, the achievement of a research discovery, the provision of a needed university or public service, the achievement of an educational goal, the publication of a thesis or paper, the achievement of national recognition, etc).
2. The extent to which the individual demonstrates general support of the University either through service, advocacy, philanthropy, etc. Nominations must be completed on the nomination form, which can be found at the Foundation web site, www.alaska.edu/foundation/. Nominations received in other formats will not be accepted. Only complete nominations will be considered.

Nominations may be sent to the Foundation office at 910 Yukon Drive, Suite 206, Fairbanks, AK 99775. All nominations from all sources must be received in the Foundation Office or postmarked by December 1, 2002, to be considered for the 2003 prize.

Nominations received by the Foundation after that date will be considered for next year’s prize.
