The Distinguished Scholar-Teacher Program honors members of our faculty who have demonstrated outstanding scholarly achievement as well as outstanding accomplishments as teachers. This program recognizes those who have led the way in both areas and who thus serve as models of excellence for the faculty of a top research university. Each year, the Associate Provost for Faculty Affairs selects a panel of former Distinguished Scholar-Teachers to review nominees for the award. You are among the faculty members they chose from an impressive group of candidates. Please join us at this very special event.
