To be eligible for the Pi alpha Award, one must:
·         Be a member, in any category, of ASCLS-PA.
·         Be nominated by a district society, a member of the ASCLS-PA Board of Directors, or any member of this Society.
·         Have made a gainful contribution to the activities of a district society and/or ASCLS-PA as evidenced by a very brief explanation
​          to accompany the nominations.
 
Candidates for the Pi Alpha award will be nominated on forms supplied by the ASCLS-PA Awards Committee.  Nominations will be compiled by the district society presidents and forwarded to the ASCLS-PA President, who alone will make the final selections.
 
In addition to the nominations received, the ASCLS-PA President shall have the authority to award additional Pi Alpha awards at his/her discretion, if necessary.
 
The award will be in the form of a ribbon or sticker to be attached to the badge at the ASCLS-PA Annual Meeting, as well as a letter from the ASCLS-PA President.  The names of the Pi Alpha recipients will be announced at the annual ASCLS-PA awards ceremony, published in the ceremony program, and in the ASCLS-PA Newsletter.
 
An effort will be made to ensure an equitable distribution of awards among all active district societies.
