The letter of support must provide details of the extent and importance of the nominee's contributions in relation to the selection criteria, and include a summary of up to 200 words understandable to the broad membership of the ICA.

contributions other than research.
At most one medal per year is to be awarded,
typically to a Fellow of the ICA.
Honorary Fellowship recognizes an individual who has made pre-eminent contributions to combinatorics or its applications.
Nominees need not be Fellows of the ICA. The number of living Honorary Fellows at any time shall not exceed ten.
Please send nominations to Heather Jordon (hdj@ams.org), who will acknowledge receipt and verify that the nomination package is complete. The Medals Committee will not otherwise comment on a nomination, whether recommended or not, except in its report to the ICA President. Nominations that are not recommended will be considered again in each of the two years following the submission of the nomination, provided that the eligibility criteria are still satisfied. Short updates to nominations will be accepted, but they will not extend the three year consideration period. A new nomination can be submitted after a gap of at least one year.
