Our Evaluating Committee

The Romanian Heritage Awards Evaluating Committee is composed of distinguished individuals drawn from academia, the Romanian-American professional community, and civic leadership. Each member brings a deep personal connection to Romanian heritage and a commitment to recognizing the next generation of community leaders.

Committee members review all applications independently, scoring each submission against a consistent set of criteria before convening to deliberate collectively. This process ensures every applicant receives a thorough, fair, and informed evaluation — regardless of region, school, or background.
The committee’s geographic and professional diversity reflects the breadth of the Romanian-American community itself: from the East Coast to the West Coast, from education to business to public service.

Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean. A small river named Duden flows by their place and supplies it with the necessary regelialia. It is a paradisematic country, in which roasted parts of sentences fly into your mouth.
