2013-2014 Award Winners

AMS Local Chapter Awards for 2013-2014

The Chapter of the Year Awards for 2013-2014 were presented to the winners by AMS Past President Bill Gail at the AMS Annual Meeing in Phoenix. Every year the Local Chapter Affairs Committee is tasked with choosing the winners for this award (both student and regular chapters) and once again this year's applicants were outstanding. With so many impressive applicants, the job of selecting winners for this award is a difficult one. Thank you to all the chapters who submitted applications for the award! The nomination deadline for the 2014-2015 awards is 1 May 2015.
