The Society administers three awards: the Nickerson Service Award, the Macbeth Award, and the Godlove Award.
The details of each award, as well as a list of past recipients, can be found by following the links below. Note that for the Nickerson Service Award, as well as the Godlove and Macbeth Awards, it is the intention of the Board of Directors to move to a "rolling" submission process, through which award committees are always receiving nominations. Each selection process will then be based on the nominations in hand at the time of the convening of the committee.
We have consolidated the award nomination forms into a single document. Download it, fill it out, and email the ISCC office. Or you can print it and fill it out by hand, and the send to the ISCC office (details are on the form). Finally, you can scan the form and email it to us.
The recipient of the 2020 Nickerson Award was Maggie Maggio, and Roland L Connelly, Sr received the 2020 Macbeth Award. In 2019 Danny C. Rich received the Godlove Award. Congratulations to all! A complete description of the origin, purpose, and past recipients for all three awards can be found here:
