Nomination for The Linda Berman ~ Barbara Rockow Scholarship
In 2007, the Berman-Rockow Award was established to honor the many years of outstanding service that the outgoing treasurer, Linda Berman, and the outgoing secretary, Barbara Rockow, had rendered to the New York State Mathematics League (NYSML). Coaches may submit a short narrative in support of one team member who is deserving of a leadership award. The Berman-Rockow Award will honor students who embody good leadership on an all-star team. It is not necessary that the honorees be the strongest mathematicians on the team, but it is necessary that the narrative describe how the student brings almost-intangible benefits to the way a team functions. Beginning in 2015, this award may be given to a maximum of one student per team per year. Multiple awards may be given each year. Therefore, we encourage all coaches to submit a narrative on behalf of one student.
