The evaluation and selection of finalists and awardees will be made by the Senior Vice President and Assistant Vice President for Academic Affairs, Student Affairs & Equity (or designees) with advice and recommendations from qualified volunteers from outside the University (which in the past have included investors, innovators, and entrepreneurs). Where appropriate, consultation may be used with other scientific and technical experts within or outside the University. The decision of the Senior Vice President and Assistant Vice President is final and not subject to further review.
