Teaching Recognition Award Sponsored by the Meredith Professors

Chancellor’s Citation Awards
Recipients of the Chancellor’s Citation Awards are chosen from nominations submitted by faculty, staff, and students of the University Community. A selection committee comprised of faculty and staff from various units across campus reviews the nominations.
