Jean Fourcroy presented the rep::>rt of the Awards Committee and urged members to continue to nominate outstanding candidates for the Society awards. She especially stressed the nee:i for advisors to encourage their students to compete for the Student Award. A Student Award was not presented at the 1985 Meeting because of a paucity of entrants in the essay contest and a previous decision not to have an oral/poster presentation competition in conjunction with the 1985 Annual Meeting. Dr. Robert H. Foote was recognized as the Distinguished Andro1ogist. The sereno Award was made to Dr. David de Kretser.
