Rick Snow Award
The Rick Snow Award was created in 1991 to honor distinguished young professionals in Admissions, Records, or Enrollment Management who have made a significant contribution to WVACRAO. The award commemorates Richard Snow, the Registrar/Director of Admissions at Bluefield State College who befriended and mentored many new admissions and records professionals through the years.
A nominee should have been active in WVACRAO a minimum of three years, but no more than eight years. A commitment to WVACRAO may have been demonstrated by regular attendance at annual conferences, program participation as presenters, recorders, or moderators, committee involvement, and other professional activities. The award may be given to only one person per year, but is not necessarily awarded each year.
