Elizabeth Hurlock Beckman Award Trust Seeks Applicants for 2013
 
WHAT
The Elizabeth Hurlock Beckman Award Advisory Committee is currently seeking nominations for the 2013 Beckman award. The award is given to professors who 
inspired their former students to achieve greatness. Each recipient will receive a one-time cash award of $25,000. Preference will be given to educators who teach or who taught in the fields of psychology, medicine, or law. In 2012, over half a million dollars was awarded to 22 professors throughout the United States.
 
Each year the advisory committee prescreens the nominees for qualification. The former students of those nominees who are determined to be eligible will then be invited to submit an application package.
 
WHO
The Elizabeth Hurlock Beckman Award Trust was established in 2008 under the will of Gail McKnight Beckman in memory of her mother, Dr. Elizabeth Hurlock Beckman. Wells Fargo Bank, N. A. serves as the Trustee. Dr. Beckman was an educator, a renowned author, and a pioneer in the field of Psychology.
Gail McKnight Beckman created the Beckman award to benefit teachers who have inspired their former students to make a difference in their communities. The award is given to current or former academic faculty members who have inspired their former students to "create an organization which has demonstrably conferred a benefit on the community at large." Alternatively, academic faculty members must have inspired their former students to "establish on a lasting basis a concept, procedure, or movement of comparable benefit to the community at large."
 
WHEN
The nomination deadline is July 15, 2013. An award ceremony will be held on Saturday, November 9, 2013 in Atlanta, GA at The Carter Center.
