Awards Nominations 2009
The Kim Rotzoll Award for Advertising Ethics and Social Responsibility
Submission Deadline: January 2, 2009
The Kim Rotzoll Award for Advertising Ethics and Social Responsibility recognizes outstanding contributions to
furthering the study and practice of ethical and socially responsible advertising.
The award is accompanied by a plaque commemorating the event and is presented at the annual conference of the
Academy. The award is made by the Awards Committee. This is not to be considered as an annual award and will be given only to
individuals or organizations who have demonstrated an outstanding commitment to advertising ethics and social responsibility. One need not
be a member of the Academy to be considered for the award and any member of the Academy may submit a nomination. Please refer to the AAA
Directory and/or website for more information on each award: http://www.aaasite.org
The nomination letter and supporting documentation must provide evidence of the contributions of the nominee.
The evidence submitted should be readily identifiable and measurable. For an academic, such evidence is likely to be exhibited in the form
of scholarly publications (e.g., books and/or peer-reviewed articles). For an advertising practitioner or organization, the results of
specific programs or activities that have had a positive impact on society would serve as evidence. There must be evidence of lifetime
achievement in either ethics or social responsibility.
Note that letters of support alone are not to be considered as adequate documentation; in fact, support letters
without documentation will not be considered by the committee. A meaningful nomination should include at least three, but no more than
five, actual support documents. All letters should fully explain, with reference to documents and with as much detail as possible, the
reasons the person is being nominated. All documents should be e-mailable, in Word or .pdf format. For a list of past award winners please visit the awards
page. Nominations and supporting documentation should be sent no later
than January 2, 2009 to the Chair of the Awards Committee:
