How do OTMs Work?
OTMs are awarded each month by the OTM Committee. The committee is composed of NRHH members and chaired by the Vice President for Recognition. All nominations are judged according to criteria established for each category. Once the Committee has chosen the winning nominations, the awards for OTMs are presented by the NRHH president to the person or group being honored at a general body meeting of the Resident Student Association.
Once the campus awards have been
decided,
the Vice President for Recognition prepares and sends the campus awards
to the
regional level. Regional level OTM winners are sent to Nationals,
which is
a tremendous honor.
