Best and Worst Audience Awards: Celebrating Engagement at Seminars
The Best Audience Award recognizes participants who actively engage speakers by asking insightful questions. Points are awarded based on the type of audience member: core faculty earn 0.1 points per question, research associates 0.5, senior students 1.0, and junior students 2.0. The awards are presented at the end of the season based on accumulated points. Conversely, the Worst Audience Award highlights attendees who do not participate. Attendance sheets will close five minutes after the seminar begins to ensure punctuality and respect for speakers.
