Notes to judges - Please see that at least one of the judges is present in each committee at all times.  It is also a good idea to ask the committee chair for his or her evaluation of high school students in the committee.  Dr. Van Aller will be circulating between committees and will give you his input on college delegates.  The Judges' meeting to decide on winners will be  around 12:00 noon on Friday in Room 206 Tillman.  No students should be selected for more than one individual award.
