Our office is coordinating the 2012-2013 Student Awards Breakfast nominations for the program to be held on the Fairbanks campus Saturday, April 27, 2013 in the Carol Brown Ballroom at 9:30 AM.  Each undergraduate department or program within CRCD is invited to select an outstanding student.  Only this outstanding student will be presented at the breakfast.

Some points for the departments and programs to be aware of in their selection process are:

• Award recipients must be "full-time" or "part-time" undergraduate students.
• Award recipients must also be "degree seeking."
• CRCD departments/programs are responsible for the selection criteria
• Each department/program should forward only one (1) outstanding student.
• Unfortunately, we are unable to bring in students from outlying areas.

When your selection is completed, please notify the outstanding students and their parents of the selection, and extend an invitation to attend the Award Program.  Please distribute the attached Awards Breakfast form to selected students.  Tickets for the recipient and the recipient's guests are available at the Wood Center Office.  The student will also need to fill out a model release form.
