The story of the starfish describes the difference that one person can make in his/her daily work. It is common for starfish to have five arms and thus there are five criteria, modeled after those values that Eunice lived. Award nominees should have made a difference in one or more of the following areas:
• Nurturing diversity and respect
• Promoting service, activism and engagement
• Modeling compassion for others
• Providing access and opportunity
• Leading the way
