The Membership committee is accepting nominations for Pennsylvania TRIO Achievers through Friday, February 19th.  To be considered as a PA TRIO Achiever, a nominee:

- Must be a former TRIO project participant who was enrolled in and successfully completed a TRIO program;

- Must have enrolled in and successfully completed a postsecondary program of study resulting in a baccalaureate or terminal degree from an accredited institution of higher education;

- Must be a person of high stature within his/her profession or a person who has received recognition for academic achievement;

- Should be employed above the entry level designation for his/her profession, enrolled in a program for a degree above the baccalaureate degree, have done one or both of the previous items, or have retired; and

- Should have made significant civic, community, or professional contributions.

In addition, the nominee's participation in the PA TRIO project must have had significant impact upon the candidate in obtaining his/her educational and/or professional objectives.  Finally, the representing organization of the nominator must be a current PA TRIO member, unless the program is no longer in existence.

I am sure that all of your programs have many worthy alumni who meet these criteria, so please consider nominating one for this year's PA TRIO Achiever.  For your convenience, I have attached a letter outlining the nomination criteria and  and supporting documentation and a PA TRIO Nomination Form to this message.  Please forward your nominations to me at aheinzeroth@francis.edu by Friday, February 19th.  I hope to receive your PA TRIO Achiever nomination soon!
