George Duke Humphrey Distinguished Faculty Award

DEADLINE:  January 21, 2005

Purpose:   Presented to a faculty member who, in addition to acclaim as a teacher, has achieved distinction as a scholar in research or other creative activity, and who has given distinguished service to the University.

Eligibility:  All full-time faculty who teach and conduct research or creative  activities are eligible.  Past recipients of the Humphrey award are not eligible, but past winners of other awards are.

Nominating Materials:  The nominee’s packet should include:

• A current curriculum vitae.

• A summary list of classes taught over the last three years (including the current semester), with class enrollments.

• All evaluations for these classes.  Please provide an explanation for any courses that do not have evaluations.

• Three supporting letters from colleagues.

• Three outside letters of support.

The Faculty Senate's Faculty Development Committee will review nominations and select awardees.  In addition, the committee will invite the President of the ASUW or a designated representative to participate.  The committee requests that a department nominate no more than one individual for this award.  Departments are welcome to re-submit unsuccessful nominations from previous years, since in any single year there are often more strong nominees than awards.

The committee will consider the nominees for these awards for the CASE U.S. Professors of the Year Award, given by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching.  This national award, given in each state, emphasizes excellence and innovation in undergraduate instruction.

Please send nominations, including all letters and supporting materials, to the following address:

        Faculty Development Committee

        c/o Office of Academic Affairs

        Old Main, Room 312

        UW Campus
