Honorees are selected based on a scoring system. Each board member will be presented with a list of the names for consideration for the coming year. They will then rate individual applications on a scale ranging from one, two, three, etc. (1,2,3), with one being the highest score. Upon completion of the scoring system by all board members, the applicants with the most number-one votes will be offered for admission in the honoring class for the current year. The board of directors will decide upon the number of recipients for each annual ceremony. All non-selected applications will be kept in an active file for consideration for three successive years.
