Theme celebration awards to be given

Nominations are sought for student, faculty and staff awards that will be given as part of Iowa State's Challenging Students to Become their Best celebration.

Nomination forms will be available at the Challenging Students Web page, http://www.iastate.edu/~saff/challenge, and are due March 20. Faculty, staff and students can submit nominations. A brief essay is required for each award category.

There are three awards:
The Outstanding Challengers award will recognize faculty, staff or students whose interactions with students have consistently challenged and inspired students to become their best.

The Above and Beyond award will recognize undergraduate students who have achieved unusual accomplishments that demonstrate commitment to excellence in academics, leadership or service.

The Unsung Heroes award will recognize students who work "behind the scenes" to assist others, achieve their personal best or overcome an obstacle.

Award winners will be announced at a recognition ceremony during Veishea week.
