ALL-SIS Awards for 2010

It is my pleasure to announce, on behalf of the ALL-SIS Awards Committee, the recipients and winners of several ALL-SIS grants and awards for 2010. But, first I would like to thank each and every one of you who applied for a grant or nominated a colleague for an award. We had many deserving applicants and nominees this year, and all of them were deserving of recognition. Nevertheless, the people receiving grants or awards this year are as follows:
