Assistance with the cost of travel to the awards ceremony should come in the form of a fixed price travel grant rather than an open-ended reimbursement of expenses.

At appropriate intervals, headquarters will send several copies of the Awards Nomination Booklet, issues of ASEE Prism featuring the particular awards and recipients, a news release, and the Annual Conference Awards Banquet Program to the national awards sponsors, to the sponsors of Society Unit awards that are processed through Headquarters, and to others as requested by Society Unit Officers.
10.7 OBTAINING QUALIFIED CANDIDATES
It is the responsibility of the Award Committee Chairs to devise a process which will encourage the nomination of as many well qualified candidates as possible. New Chairs may want to contact their predecessors for tips and guidelines based on their previous experience. Appendix A provides an example of one method that has been successful for several awards the preliminary search for candidates.
