The Forum Publications Editorial Advisory Committee conducts a "masked review" of all Forum papers submitted for publication. The Committee is responsible for nominating papers for the Charles F. Elton Best Paper Award and for inclusion in the ERIC Collection of AIR Forum Papers (published in lieu of Forum Proceedings).
Charles F. Elton Best Paper Award. Provided it complies with the manuscript preparation procedures that follow, each paper must be electronically submitted to be considered for this award, which is presented annually for the Forum paper that most clearly exemplifies the standards of excellence established by the award's namesake, Founder and Editor Emeritus of RHE, and that makes a significant contribution to the field of institutional research and decision making in higher education. The award recipient is recognized at the next Forum.
