Checklist for Letters of Support
Public Health Alumni Hall of Fame

• Provide names of colleagues who will write a letter of support with this checklist.
• State the nominee's SPECIFIC contribution to the field of public health and for which they should be known. Include what has happened as a result of the nominee's efforts. Consider the criteria for selection of the award recipients.
• Has the nominee been a role model for others? If so, please explain.
• Do you have a personal perspective of the nominee based on your association with the nominee? If so, what is it?
• Provide information that is not evident from the resume/CV. The letter should enhance and not duplicate the resume/CV.
• Summarize your nomination. For example: "As a result of my knowledge of and experience with the nominee, I unreservedly recommend the nominee for this award which would reflect as favorably on UCLA School of Public Health for its recognition of this individual as on the nominee."
