Outstanding Faculty Adviser Awards

This award honors, at the end of each academic year, five faculty members who have demonstrated outstanding service to the University through advising. Each winner will receive $500 as a cash bonus or travel or an equipment allocation. In addition, each winner's department will receive $500 to spend on its advising program.

CEHSP has written a philosophy of advisement by which it guides its advisement practices. The collegiate philosophy and the departmental practice statement should serve as the foci from which faculty advisors are chosen for this award.

Collegiate units are encouraged to send forward at least two nominations.

The following process is suggested:

1. The principal administrator for each unit shall call for nominations.
2. Faculty, staff or students may make nominations and members may nominate themselves. Temporary, tenure-track or tenured faculty members may be nominated.
3. Nominations should be no more than two pages and should consist of reasons why a faculty member should receive the award. Supporting materials may be provided.
4. A collegiate process should be used to screen nominations and to make recommendations to the principal administrator.
5. The principal administrator should forward her/his prioritized recommendations and documentation to the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Academic Administration.

• Nominations should be submitted to the principal administrator by March 3, 2008.
