CALL FOR NOMINATIONS

The Society for American Archaeology calls for nominations for
the 1998 Excellence in Public Education Award. Eligible candidates
are individuals (such as teachers, museum educators, administrators,
interpreters, etc.) who have contributed substantially to public
education through writing, speaking or otherwise presenting
information about archaeology to the public, or through facilitating
institutions and other individuals in their public education efforts.

and are not eligible for this award. Nominees will be evaluated
according
to their creativity, leadership and public impact. Nominations should
consist of a letter identifying the nominee and explaining their
contribution to public education. Letters may be accompanied by a vita,
resume and/or other supporting data. Nominations should be sent by
