ROC}FELLER PUBLIC SERVICE AWARDS
Standards of competition
The program is open to federal career employees whose performance
has been distinguished by intellectual maturity, leadership,
character and competence and who evidence a sincere interest in
public service as a career. The program is open to federal civilian
personnel whether they be employed in Washington or in the field
and without preferential regard to such factors as professional
interests, sex, creed, color or national origin. The essential
criterion is evidence of demonstrated value of the employee to the
government service and evidence of future value in terms of general
promise of usefulness or in terms of a specific future assignment.
Candidates need not be graduates of a college or university.
General Conditions.
The candidate's proposed course of educational activity should
provide for maximum personal enrichment and self-development.
Although the awards are not intended to subsidize government
research that should be conducted on a normal on-duty basis
or that should be financed through currently available appropriation
procedures, cases will inevitably occur in which the applicant's
project and an agency's interest dovetail. In such cases the
staff of the Rockefeller Public Service Awards will reserve the
right to work out with the individual and with the agency concerned
an appropriate allocation of time and finances.
The awards will be sufficient to enable each recipient, at no
financial sacrifice to himself, to spend normally not less than
six nor more than nine months in residence at an institution of the
individual's choine, or.in some comparable educational activity.
To minimize the difficulties involved in releasing an outstanding
employee from active duty, an award recipient may initiate his
study program at any time within one year following his acceptance
of an award.
