REGENTS EXCELLENCE IN TEACHING AWARDS (Individual and Department)
The first call for nominations for the Regents Excellence in Teaching Awards for 2012-2013 was forwarded to college deans and the Learning Resource Center May 15, 2012. The University Awards Subcommittee will consider nominations and forward one campus nominee for each of the awards (individual faculty and department) to the UW System Regents Award Committee. For more information on the nature of the awards and past awardees, please see http://www.wisconsin.edu/bor/awards/teaching/
To foster greater participation, the committee strongly encourages submitting of previous UWSP Award winners and their department(s) for consideration for the Board of Regents Departmental and Individual Teaching Awards.
Each college dean and the Learning Resource Center is requested to submit one nomination in each of the two categories. Along with the nomination, on two pages (sent electronically), a detailed description of why that individual or department deserves this recognition should be included. Nominations should be forwarded to the Faculty Senate office, nsimon@uwsp.edu, no later than noon on Friday,
October 19, 2012.
The University Awards Subcommittee will notify the individual and department selected by November 9, 2012. This gives each nominee time to prepare the required materials for submission to the Regents Award Committee in February 2013.
A summary of the criteria that the Regents Award Committee has used in determining past award recipients has been provided below. The criteria for the 2012-2013 Regents Awards has not been officially released to-date. The University Awards Subcommittee will follow these criteria in choosing the campus nominees. A listing of the UWSP nominees in previous years has also been provided below.
