Calling for Women* of Distinction nominations

The WSU Women* of Distinction and Woman* of the Year Awards are presented annually, usually during National Women’s History Month. This year, we are again presenting the awards in April via webinar to recognize the achievements and contributions of our distinguished faculty, staff, alumna, and students across to the WSU system and our society. The deadline to submit nominations is Friday, March 18, at 5 p.m. Awards date and time to be determined.

Women* of Distinction awardees usually include an alumna, a faculty member, a staff member, or a student (undergraduate or graduate). Individuals not affiliated with WSU but who work with WSU in community engagement, development, student engagement, or other areas can also be nominated.  All nominees for Women* of Distinction awards are eligible for the Woman* of the Year award, and nominations from all WSU campuses and locations, as well as self-nominations, are encouraged. See the website for more information and to find the nomination form: womenofdistinction.wsu.edu.

* This award is for people who identify as women and their allies, who have worked to elevate the status and equality of women.
