“SANDY”
Submission
Deadline: November

The American Academy of
Advertising is happy to announce the call for nominations
for the Charles H. Sandage Award for Teaching Excellence,
known as the “The Sandy.”
The award is in
recognition of outstanding contributions to advertising
teaching. The award is accompanied by a plaque commemorating
the event and is presented at the annual conference of the
Academy.
One need not
be a member of the Academy to be considered for the award;
however, preference will be given to Academy
members. Only members of the Academy may submit a
nomination.
Past Presidents of the
Academy are not eligible until five years have passed
since they have served on the Executive
Committee. Please refer to the
AAA Directory and/or website for more information on each
award.
The nomination letter
and supporting documentation should provide evidence of
lifetime teaching excellence. Examples of excellence might
include (but are not limited to) the
following:
·
Performance of
students as advertising (or business)
professionals

·
Textbook

·
Letters from
past students (not sufficient in and of
themselves)

Note that letters of
support alone are not adequate documentation; in fact,
support letters without documentation will not be considered
by the committee. A meaningful nomination
should include at least three, but no more than five, actual
support documents. All letters should
fully explain, with reference to documents and with as much
detail as possible, the reasons the person is being
nominated.
All documents should be submitted only by e-mail in Word or pdf

No more than one Sandy
will be awarded in a given year, and there is no obligation
to award a Sandy in any year. For a list of past award
