Intro

Following on from a question raised by Mike Garcia Webb at the BATS seminar 9/14/05, Doug has asked the BE students to suggest a group of awards they would like to see instituted for fellow BE students. What I'd like to do is to get some feedback from the board first on some initial suggestions and by early next week to send a general email out to the BE students requesting their input.

Please add your comments to any of the sections below or create your own sections.

Awards

Academic

  • Best thesis defense in a given year
  • Best BATS talk
  • Most innovative paper with a BE student as first author
  • Student chosen BE faculty teaching/mentoring award
  • Best retreat poster
  • Biggest contribution to improving the BE department

Community

  • Best Halloween costume
  • Best TGIF idea?
  • IM Sports All-Star

Funding

  • Industry lins
  • Individual donations (alums?)
  • Division (department) funds.

Anybody have any suggestions of how this works in other schools?
