MRS Graduate Student Awards Announced for 1986 MRS Fall Meeting The Materials Research Society Awards Committee has selected 14 recipients of Graduate Student Awards to be presented at the 1986 Fall Meeting in Boston. The students receive a commemorative plaque, a waived meeting registration fee, and a cash prize. They will be recognized at the Awards Ceremony on Wednesday, December 3,1986 at 6:00 p.m. in the Grand Ballroom of the Boston Marriott/Copley Place Hotel. Students were judged on the originality, cogency, quality, and impact of their work in a field related to one of the symposia at the 1986 Fall Meeting. The students were also judged on the independence they displayed in their research and on their promise for future accomplishments in materials research. In selecting recipients, the Awards Committee relies on the application material submitted by the student, on the evaluation of that material by the relevant symposium chairs, and on a supporting letter from the student's faculty advisor. Many more deserving candidates applied this year than could receive the limited number of awards available. According to Awards Committee Chairman, Elton N. Kaufmann (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory),"Congratulationsare really due to all the applicants—their work is quite impressive. It would be nice if we could find awards for all of these excellent students." The following students will receive awards: Lisa Parechanian Allen, Materials Science and Engineering, University of California at Berkeley, "Surface Faceting of (110) GaAs: Analysis and Elimination" (Symposium I) Harry A.
