This is the highest honor that UNM can bestow upon a faculty member in recognition of creative activity of exceptional merit. Six copies of each nomination must be submitted for circulation to Subcommittee members. In order for the RPC Subcommittee to evaluate the nominees on a comparable basis, it is essential that the documentation be extremely thorough. Decisions will be based entirely on the materials submitted. Please note that no more than ten letters of reference should be included in a nomination package.
Faxed letters are acceptable.
Persons nominated in prior years may be renominated if they continue to meet the criteria stated above. In such cases updated documentation must be resubmitted. However, the letters of recommendation not more than two years old, from peers, are acceptable for renominations. Previous award winners are listed on the other side of this sheet. The Award Subcommittee members wish to encourage the prospective nominators to continue this tradition of excellence by nominating their deserving colleagues.
