CALL FOR NOMINATIONS: 2009 James G. (Jerry) Hunt SMA Sustained Outstanding Service Award
In keeping with tradition and Jerry Hunt’s legacy, the 2009 James G. (Jerry) Hunt SMA Sustained Outstanding Service Award will recognize an individual who has provided continued outstanding service to the SMA. The award is keyed to the SMA’s goals and mission and complements the SMA’s long-held policy of recognizing outstanding research contributions through best paper and best reviewer awards.
The “Hunt Award” recognizes an individual who has consistently helped the SMA reach its goals and mission over a period of years. The individual recognized must have made important and sustained contributions to the SMA, including, but not limited to, sustained elected, appointed (e.g., track chairs, committees) and volunteer (e.g., paper reviewers, session chairs and discussants) service as well as extraordinary contributions to the SMA (e.g., local arrangements, financial contributions). The award winner will be recognized at the 2008 SMA meeting with a plaque and $500. A notice with the winner's photo and contributions will be featured in the SMA newsletter.
