John & Suanne Roueche Excellence Awards FAQs

My college missed the deadline to submit recipients for the John & Suanne Roueche Excellence Awards. Are we still able to submit names to receive the award?
Yes. However, unfortunately names received after the deadline will not be included in the Awards Program or other related publications and print materials. You will be able to find them on the current year’s online Recipient List. Please contact Cheri Jessup for additional information.

My college has told me I am a recipient, but I have not received any notification from the League. What should I do?
Please contact Cheri Jessup to be sure the League has received your college's submission form, and that the information has been verified by your college president.

How was I selected for this award?
Each college has their own selection criteria. Please check your “Request for Recipient Information” or “Recipient Information” email to see who that person is for your college, or contact Cheri Jessup to find out who that person is.

I was notified that I am a John & Suanne Roueche Excellence Awards recipient, so what’s next?

No. These are not mandatory. However, if you are interested in submitting any/all of these items, click here to review the guidelines. Please note that each recipient receives email notices with a unique link to a personal submission page, and instructions for submitting these materials.
