Good morning Awards Contacts:
The deadline for the Governor General's Gold Medal nominations to be submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies is coming up on *APRIL 1st*. Please view the award details here http://webapps.cc.umanitoba.ca/gradawards/index.asp?WCI=SearchForm&WCE=browse&keywords=&criteria=any&category=0&citizen=0&range=0-1000000&tenable=0&byResearch=on&byAward=on&byEligibility=on&id=3094&letter=G and contact me if you have any questions. I will be making arrangements to have an advertisement sent out to students and subsequently to you later today. Each Faculty/Unit may nominate ONE Master's or Doctoral student for the Governor General's Gold Medal. You may wish to announce to faculty/students that you have your own internal deadline by which nominations must be submitted in order that your own review committee has time to assess and then choose the top candidate to forward to FGS.
Please ensure that all deans and directors are notified of this award and its' upcoming deadline.
Thank you, Christal
