Wendy L. Martinez, GSS Committee to Nominate Fellows
In 2016, the Government Statistics Section (GSS) established the Committee to Nominate Fellows, whose purpose is to identify members of GSS who are suitable nominees for the honor of ASA Fellow and to coordinate the preparation and submission of the nomination packets.
Individuals are nominated for Fellow by their ASA member peers and must be a person who has made exceptional contributions to our profession. Nominees are evaluated based on several criteria outlined on the ASA website. A nominee must be a current member of the ASA who has held continuous membership from March 1, 2015, to February 28, 2018.
The GSS Committee to Nominate Fellows is accepting nominations for ASA Fellow. Please submit the name of the nominee and a brief paragraph describing why the nominee deserves the award. These are due to Wendy Martinez by November 30.
