TitlePost Secondary Russian Scholar Laureate Award
Body
It's time once again to nominate the TOP STUDENT in your program for the annual Post Secondary Russian Scholar Laureate Award--PSRSLA!! The PSRSLA is a FREE program offered to US Russian Departments and Programs. Organized under the auspices of ACTR (the American Council of Teachers of Russian), the PSRSLA seeks to provide national recognition for our star students--those students who best embody an enthusiasm for and love of things Russian. ACTR provides this program as a service to the profession.

In order to nominate a student, please follow these guidelines:

--Deadline for nominations 1 MARCH 2010.
--Nominations are accepted in ELECTRONIC FORMAT ONLY, via e-mail to cynthia.ruder@uky.edu . Nominations can be in the body of the e-mail or sent as an attachment. Nomination letters should include the following information:
--Full name of student. Nominees should be juniors or seniors.
**Note that only 1 student can be nominated from each institution.
***Remember that YOU decide who is worthy of this award, not ACTR.
--Description of why this student most deserves this award. Be sure to supply specific information that describes how the student promotes the study of Russian and models the behavior of a committed Russian student. The student need not have the top GPA, nor be a Russian major, but should demonstrate an active dedication--in course work, outside activities, attitude--to the study of Russian language and culture.
--Name and contact information of the nominator. The nomination should reflect the CONSENSUS of the program or department. The nomination letter should be submitted over the signature of the Department or Program chair or the Director of Undergraduate Studies.
--Remember that the nominator must be a member of ACTR. If you are not a member of ACTR and would like to join, please contact George Morris, ACTR Treasurer at actrmbrs@sbcglobal.net in order to join the organization.
--Award certificates will be mailed to nominators during March so that they arrive prior to any departmental award ceremonies.
