The University Women\u2019s Commission is accepting University-wide nominations for the annual University of Toledo Alice H. Skeens Outstanding Woman Award.<\/p>\n
Anyone in the University and the University of Toledo Medical College can nominate a faculty or staff member; however, previous award recipients are not eligible.<\/p>\n
Sunday, March 1, is the deadline to submit a nominee.<\/p>\n
Nominees will be evaluated based on the following criteria:<\/p>\n
\u2022\u00a0 Exceptional contributions and achievements;
\n\u2022\u00a0 Active involvement in the University community;
\n\u2022\u00a0 Demonstrated positive attitude toward responsibilities;
\n\u2022\u00a0 Advocacy and support of women\u2019s issues; and

Each nomination must include:<\/p>\n

\n\u2022\u00a0 A letter of recommendation from the nominator explaining why the nominee exemplifies outstanding qualities. The letter should be uploaded as a PDF, DOC or DOCX file.<\/p>\n
The documentation provided will serve as the basis for evaluation.<\/p>\n
The nominee\u2019s accomplishments carry greater weight than the number of nominations submitted, and additional supporting materials may be requested from nominees.<\/p>\n
