Who are the judges?
On Tuesday morning you will receive at your project display a list of the Category Award judges for your panel and their qualifications. These judges are recruited by the Fair for these Fair awards. At the beginning of the first judging session the chair of your judging panel should inform you as to how many judges there are and how many interviews you may expect, since the number will depend upon both the number of projects and of judges. In addition, you will see many judges who represent independent corporations and scientific and engineering societies and who are interviewing for Special and Recognition Awards. These judges will not interview every student because they are deciding awards with selection criteria set by each independent awarding organization. The nametags of judges for Fair and Special and Recognition awards will distinguish between the two.
