DSR-TKA NATIONAL AWARDS
Student Speaker of the Year Award
Please consider nominating an outstanding student speaker from your chapter 
for this award.  The nomination from a chapter must be classified as senior.  
Nominations will be judged on the student's forensic achievement, academic 
accomplishments, and community service.  Nominations must include a vitae of 
activities and accomplishments, a letter or letters of recommendation, a brief 
statement from the student nominated, and a transcript of academic record.  
All nominations must be turned in at the tournament registration on Friday

Chapter Community Service/Outreach Award
In 1998, the DSR-TKA student officers felt it important to recognize the many 
contributions our chapter schools make in their local communities.  Therefore, 
an award is now presented each year to a chapter(s) that has made unique and 
outstanding efforts in the area of community service.  Chapter will be judged 
on assessment of community need, uniqueness, and overall effectiveness of 
their program.  If your chapter would like to be considered for this 
recognition, please submit an essay explaining those accomplishments in this 
area of service.  The essay, not to exceed 350 words, and any additional 
materials you feel would he helpful to the selection committee should be 
submitted at the tournament registration on Friday March 15.

Distinguished Alumni and Distinguished Service Awards
We encourage you to nominate individuals for the separate distinguished alumni 
and distinguished service awards.  For the service award, you may nominate any 
individual who you feel has served the forensic community with merit.  The 
alumni award nomination is limited to a former DSR-TKA member who has earned a 
career of distinction during their life.  Nominations should be in writing and 
should contain a summary of why the individual is worthy of consideration for 
this award.  Nominations are due by March 1.  Please submit your nominations
