Your table structure should be something like:
students (id, name),
awards_ students (student_id, award_id)
awards (id, name, award_type_id),
award_types (id, award_name)
Your model associations should then be:
Student hasAndBelongsToMany Award,
Award hasOne AwardType
Set the reverse assocations if you need them.

Another question about scaffolding:
Let's say I have table student and two other tables:
student_awards, and award_types. Here's an approximate description
of each table:
student (id, name),
student_awards (id, student_id, award_id)
award_types (id, award_name)
The idea is that a student has many awards and each award is looked up
in award_types.
If I understand correctly, the student model should include a hasMany
association to student_awards and student_awards should include a
belongTo association to award_types.
OK, I'm using scaffolding for all this and when I do an edit on a
student, no controls relating to the awards are shown. Actually, I'm
not sure what should be shown in this case.
I do see a query that selects all records from student_awards that
have the current student id, but like I said, no other controls are
shown.
Thanks for any suggestions!
