Recipients will be invited to attend The Power of Husker Women: A Night of Celebration Dinner on Thursday, March 6, where they will receive the awards.
Nominations must include a nomination form, nomination letter and two additional letters of support from colleagues or those who can speak to the qualities that make a nominee deserving of the award
