Call For Teaching Award Nominations 2022-2023

Each year, students, faculty, and staff are invited to nominate outstanding teachers for the Distinguished Teaching Award and for the Award for Outstanding Achievements in Social Justice Teaching. Because of the highly unusual nature of teaching over the last several semesters, we particularly encourage nominations that consider faculty ingenuity, resourcefulness, creativity, availability, and attention to equitable access in in-person, hybrid, and online teaching environments.

The Distinguished Teaching Award recognizes faculty across the university for excellence in teaching. The Award for Outstanding Achievements in Social Justice Teaching recognizes faculty members who actively promote social justice through their teaching. Please note that the nomination form for each award is different: 

  • Use this form to nominate a faculty member for the Distinguished Teaching Award
  • Use this form to nominate a faculty member for the Award for Outstanding Achievements in Social Justice Teaching.

We encourage you to nominate faculty members who you think are worthy of these awards and to take a few minutes to tell us what you think about them. Nominations are due by Tuesday, November 30, 2022.
