Subject: [OR-Announce] [ICPSR] Call for ICPSR Miller and Flanigan Awards
Nominations

 

Dear Colleagues,

 

As part of its mission to support the social sciences, ICPSR presents
biennial awards to individuals who have distinguished themselves in
their service to the social science community. We are seeking your
nominations for these two awards. 

 

The Warren E. Miller Award for Meritorious Service to the Social
Sciences was initiated in 1993 to recognize individuals who have had a
profound impact on social science research and infrastructure. Warren E.
Miller, a founder of ICPSR and its first Executive Director,
demonstrated throughout his career exemplary service to the social
science community and a talent for building institutions that have
survived beyond his direct involvement and continue to prosper.

 

The William H. Flanigan Award for Distinguished Service as an ICPSR
Representative was established in 1995 and acknowledges significant
contributions of individuals representing ICPSR member institutions. The
award is named after William H. Flanigan, who served as ICPSR Official
Representative from the University of Minnesota for 37 years, from
ICPSR's inception in 1963 until 2000. He also served as Chair of the
ICPSR Council from 1991 to 1993.

awards, is newly constituted in odd numbered years and includes the
following members for 2011: Mr. Jeff Moon and Professor Rogelio Saenz,
ICPSR Council representatives; Professor Steven Ruggles and Ms. Diane
Geraci (Chair), previous Miller Award Recipient and Flanigan Award
Recipient respectively; and Mary Morris, ICPSR staff representative.

 

Please send your nominations to this special email address:
mf-awards at icpsr.umich.edu and include a brief summary of the
individual's qualifications and explanation of why the nominee is a
worthy recipient. The Prizes committee will consider the nominations,
make a final determination of the award winners, and inform ICPSR
Council of their decision. The awards will be given during the ICPSR
Biennial Meeting of Official Representatives held October 5-7, 2011 in
Ann Arbor, Michigan. 

 

Nominations are due no later than March 25.

 

We welcome your recommendations of outstanding individuals for these two
awards.
