The award, supported by the generosity of Kathleen Sears and Jim Helgoth and administered by the College of Education and Behavioral Sciences (CEBS), is given annually to a faculty member who has demonstrated a record of excellence in instruction at 甜心视频app. The recipient will receive a plaque, recognition at Convocation and a monetary award (currently $6,000).

The total submission should not be more than 25 pages as well as ensuring that a 12-point font and one-inch margins are used throughout, including in supporting materials.

Applications will be reviewed and the awardee selected by a committee of assistant/associate deans, one from each academic college and previous award recipients. Acting CEBS Dean Robyn Hess chairs the committee.

The committee recognizes all instructional activity in an applicant's career. That is, we interpret teaching broadly (unscheduled teaching, community teaching, grant-related teaching). In spite of the complexities of judging between the various disciplines and delivery methods, the committee has the pleasure of selecting the most distinguished teacher among many.
