NOMINATIONS Nominations shall consist of:1. A letter of nomination. 2. Two seconding letters. 3. A biographical statement emphasizing the accomplishments of the nominee which pertain to the award. 4. The nominating documents shall be submitted in one package and shall not exceed 8 pages of text, including the nominating and seconding letters, biographical statement, and attachments to the nomination. If the total pages for a nomination exceeds 8, then only the first 8 pages will be submitted to the jury for the award. 5. Nominating and seconding letters may be submitted by persons who are not members of the Division. Note: These nomination instructions were revised on September 21, 2012, limiting the number of seconding letters to two and the total number of pages for the entire nomination package to eight. For the 2014 Awards, nominations shall be sent no later than November 1, 2013 to:
ELIGIBILITY 1. Eligibility is not restricted to members of the Division of Analytical Chemistry. Nominees for the J. Calvin
Giddings Award for Excellence in Education must, however, must have demonstrated excellence in teaching through at least five years at the time the award is presented.
DEADLINES All nominations must be received by November 1 of each year. They must be sent to the Division of Analytical Chemistry Office. The immediate past chairperson of the Division shall in turn transmit the nominations to the chairpersons of the appropriate juries. Nominations that are unsuccessful will be retained for jury consideration for the following three years, but may be updated if the nominator wishes.These rules are extracted and paraphrased from the complete guidelines,
which are available from the Division Chair. However, they are sufficient
to prepare a proper nomination for consideration by the appropriate award
jury.
