The Chauvenet Prize was the first award established by the Mathematical Association of America.[3] The prize is named in honor of William Chauvenet and was established through a gift from J. L. Coolidge in 1925.[3] A gift from MAA president Walter B. Ford in 1928 allowed the award to be given every three years instead of the originally planned 5 years.[4]
