I. AWARDS COMMITTEE REPORT. (Dr. ~ll)
A discussion commenced concerning the distinguished andrologist. In
the past, he or she has been announced the year prior, but the award was
given the following year. Dr. Hoffer proposed a motion that the
distinguished andrologist should be named, announced, permitted to give
his or her lecture, and receive the award all in the same year. The motion
passed.
There was further discussion regarding the distinguished andrologist
concerning the need for having the By-Laws changed. Without a formal

Andrology was the hallmark for this award, not necessarily the age of
the individual.
