Each year, ASM-Milwaukee holds a metallography contest to honor the memory of Merrill A. Scheil. Merrill served with dedication and distinction as President of both the Milwaukee Chapter and the International Society. The contest is meant to demonstrate the high level of professional and technical talent within our chapter through the display of the metallurgical skills in metallographic preparation, photomicrography, and microstructural interpretation by the participants.

Awards and prizes will be given for:

• Best-In-Show
• 2nd Place Overall
• 3rd Place Overall
• Special Undergraduate Award

Additional awards may be given at the discretion of the Technical Chair. The winning entries will be announced and recognized through the ASM Milwaukee Chapter website and communication. Content from the winning entry will be featured on the ASM Milwaukee website.
 
This year, we are introducing new, simpler rules and the ability to submit entries electronically!
