Please take a moment out of your busy day to think about someone who had a profound influence on you in your doctoral training. If that same person has been successfully training doctoral students for 15 or more years, they are eligible to be nominated for the 2011 Irwin Award. If you would like that individual to be recognized for his or her sustained influence on doctoral education within the BPS Awards committee, please consider sending me a brief e-mail identifying that person on or before January 10, 2011 along with a few sentences as to why you think that person is deserving of this award. It is a simple act, but it can have a profound influence. I look forward to receiving your nominations in the coming few weeks, and hope that your holiday break is refreshing and productive. Thanks for your consideration.
William (Bill) Judge
