2. Nominations are presented by a Nominator. The Nominator writes the letter of nomination, providing a full description of the nominee’s work that is deserving of the respective award; a short statement of nomination will not be sufficient. The Nominator shall also help the nominee to compile and order a notebook for the selection committee to substantiate the nomination, incorporating materials required and/or suggested in the accompanying criteria. No materials may be added to the notebook after the due date. 3. The selection committee is not an investigate body. Therefore, it is imperative that supportive material be complete, orderly, and self-explanatory. 4. Nominators may not nominate more than one faculty to share the same award. 5. An individual may receive an award in more than one category, although not in the same year. An individual may not receive an individual award more than once. 6. A nominee may be re-nominated. 7. Material of award recipients shall be retained for three years in the office of the Senate. 8. Neither nominees nor nominators should attempt to contact the committee, the Senate office, or the President’s Office about the process or outcome of the committee’s deliberations. No information will be given out. 9. After reviewing submitted materials, the committee, at its discretion, may elect not to recommend recipients of one or more awards in a given year.
