An awards program was established at the 20th Annual Meeting in Memphis, Tennessee on May 9, 1972. Additional awards have been added through the years. The program consists of individual and group awards to recognize individual or committee accomplishments, section awards and awards for students. For most awards, nominations are judged in January and awarded at the Annual Meeting later that spring. The awards presented at the Annual Meeting represent the accomplishments of the previous year.
