Herman Cain[edit]

Herman Cain (Presidential Candidate 2012) is missing from the list of Horatio Algers Award winners. He is from Class of 1996. http://www.horatioalger.org/members_info.cfm?memberid=CAI96 Isherwoodme (talk) 21:02, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Recipients of award[edit]

How does one confirm that the award was given to someone? For instance, a reference asserts that Bill Lear was given the award, but a search of "Lear" in the Association website has no hits.Rgdboer (talk) 21:48, 28 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You need to look for the name on the website under "About Our Members". Lear did get the award; see http://www.horatioalger.com/member_info.cfm?memberid=lea54 --Orlady (talk) 21:57, 28 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
