> About the MIT ASO Science and Technology Awards:
>  
> Every year, the Arab Students' Organization at MIT organizes the MIT ASO Science and Technology Awards Banquet to recognize outstanding Arab and Arab-American contributions to science and technology. The ceremony draws over 100 members of the Arab and Arab-American communities to celebrate the career-long accomplishments of the Lifetime Achievement Award recipient. The following awards will also be given:
> 1. The Young Professional Award recognizes the early career achievements of a young Arab or Arab-American scientist or technologist.
> 2. The Student Awards, given to one Undergraduate student and one Graduate student, recognize the academic and leadership achievements of outstanding Arab or Arab-American students in any US campus. Each of these awards comes with a $1,000 cash scholarship.
>  
> This is a great opportunity to be recognized by the Arab and Arab-American community not only in the Boston area, but nationwide. The success of previous ceremonies is a testimony to how award winners and nominees attain a great deal of recognition from the Arab and Arab-American community and beyond.
>  
> Please nominate professionals and students that you think have made great contributions to the community. Remember: you can nominate yourself!
