Subject: [Oasfaa] Nominations for 2019

Greetings OASFAA members,

It is that time of year again to honor those who have made contributions to the association and to the profession. Please review the award criteria below and submit nominations for each award to me by March 14, 2019. The recipients will be announced at the Spring 2019 conference in Tulsa!

Philo Brasher Emerging Leadership Award: This award was established by SWASFAA in honor of Philo Brasher who served many years in the association. The OASFAA Board of Directors selects a member, which is announced at the spring conference. The recipient should be an individual that has served OASFAA and made a contribution to the Association. OASFAA will pay the registration fee to the SWASFAA annual conference on behalf of the Oklahoma award winner. OASFAA will also match the $250 that SWASFAA donates to the general scholarship fund of the recipients' school.

Honorary Membership Award: Honorary Membership in OASFAA is the highest honor that the Association can bestow on a person who is neither a member nor affiliated with a member organization. Since this is the highest award that OASFAA can give, the individual receiving it must have made truly outstanding contributions to the Association and to the profession over a sustained period of time. It is not expected that honorary membership will be granted in recognition of a single accomplishment, but for continued efforts over a period of time. Honorary membership will be conferred only with the approval of the majority of the Board of Directors. Honorary members are extended the same membership privileges as Associate members.

Distinguished Service Award: This award is intended to recognize a practicing student financial aid professional at an institution. He/she should have contributed unique and long lasting efforts to the association, the profession, or the cause of financial aid in Oklahoma. In general, presentation of the awards will occur at the spring conference of the association.

Partner Award - The Partner Award may be made by the Association to another individual, not a practicing aid administrator, whose efforts are important to advancing the profession or the needs of students in Oklahoma.

The following guidelines should be observed in selecting recipients of the award:
1. A solicitation for nominees for the award should be made to all members through a posting on the OASFAA website and through the listserv.
2. Nominations must be made by active members and must be supported by two other members of the association.
3. Only active members of the association are eligible for nomination.
4. The Advisory Committee shall evaluate nominations for the award and make a recommendation to the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has the final decision regarding the selection of recipients.
5. No current member of the Advisory Committee or voting member of the Board of Directors is eligible for the award.

Please e-mail your nominees for the Philo Brasher, Honorary Membership, Distinguished Service, and Partner Awards, to me with the reasons you believe the person should be chosen to receive the award by Thursday, March 14, 2019.

Thank you for your continued support of OASFAA. If you have any questions, please let me know.

Sincerely,

Becky Isaacs
