The University of Alaska Foundation is now accepting nominations for the 2020 Edith R. Bullock Prize for Excellence. The prize, which includes a $15,000 award, is presented to an individual who has demonstrated excellence in support of the University of Alaska. Any UA student, faculty, staff or volunteer who has made a significant contribution to the university’s mission is eligible to be nominated.

The deadline to submit complete nomination packets, including application, resume or curriculum vitae and letters of reference is Dec. 23, 2019. Any material postmarked after midnight on the deadline date will be considered for the following year’s prize. Nominations may be mailed to the UA Foundation or electronically submitted to dory.straight@alaska.edu.

The Edith R. Bullock Prize for Excellence is the largest single award made annually by the UA Foundation’s Board of Trustees. It was established in 1989 through a generous donation from the late Edith R. Bullock, who served the university for 30 years as a member of the UA Board of Regents and the Foundation’s Board of Trustees.
