Judging


Participants, parents, and teachers frequently express concern about the number of times that a project has been judged. In the past there have been complaints that some students have been "judged" once, while others have been "judged" several times. In fact a project may be examined only once by the judges, or it may be viewed several times by the Judges where there is difficulty in making decisions about winners. But the fact that judges look at some projects more times than others does not indicate any discrimination. It merely reflects the judges' need to obtain more information for some entries. Complaints should not be made in such cases. Complaints should be made at the Information Tables only if an entry has not been judged at all by the end of the judging period, that is, by 11:30am. Their decisions are final.
