Accepting Phenomenal Women nominations through Monday, February 6
|
Send in your nomination of a phenomenal woman for recognition at the fifth annual Phenomenal Women's reception in March. Women who have helped promote diversity on campus and in the community will be acknowledged. Nominations are being accepted through Monday, February 6, 2006. An online nomination form can be found on the Web at www.usi.edu/phenomenalwomen/nominationform.asp. USI's Multicultural Center, the American Association of University Women, and Old National Bank will sponsor the event and recognize women who are helping to advance diversity at USI and in the community. Nominations are being sought from USI students, faculty, staff, and community members who wish to recognize outstanding women they know and respect. For this recognition, diversity is defined as the differences and similarities among groups of people and individuals based on race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, gender, language, abilities, religion, and sexual orientation. Women will be recognized from six categories: graduate student, undergraduate student, faculty member, one member of the administrative staff and one member of the support staff, plus a woman from the community. Student nominees must have a 2.25 cumulative grade point average, be currently enrolled at USI, serve as a role model for other USI students, and be a champion for diversity. Employees and the woman in the community must show a demonstrated impact on the lives of others at USI or in the community, serve as a role model for others at USI or in the community, and be a champion for diversity. The form asks for information about the nominee plus 500 words or less about the contributions of the nominee whose service helps development of a more culturally diverse campus community and community-at-large. Those nominating a person will explain how the nominee has excelled, what group(s) has been impacted by the nominee’s work, and what other recognition the nominee has received for her work. For more information, contact Pamela Hopson, director of the Multicultural Center, at 812/465-7188. |
