Presented by GNSI President Kalliopi Monoyios, this award is given to the person or persons who have demonstrated special determination to promote and develop major projects and initiatives that are instrumental in furthering the GNSI’s mission, and that required a special determination to pursue into being.

RRRRipped from the List: Work-for-Hire Contracts
One requirement of the Scientific Illustration Distance Program (SIDP) is to complete an internship. The problem: a student is negotiating a contract with a museum that wants full "work-for-hire"—not an uncommon request—but demanding full usage and copyright with no compensation, no credit for the work, no exception for portfolio and publicity use (e.g., on the SIDP website), and no artists' rights. List members offer answers.
