The STAR program was established in the 1989-90 year as a means for Sections to perform a self-evaluation of their efforts during the year. Criteria forms are sent to all Sections each year to enable them to report on their activities in areas such as educational opportunities, technical meetings, conferences, Section finances and administration, work with students and the general public, and participation in various Society-sponsored events and contests.
