Awards
Each year the University as well as industry groups and
professional societies recognize our students and faculty with
numerous awards. For example, the Department of Agricultural Education and Communications received the prestigious “Departmental Excellence in Teaching Award” from
the University Teaching Academy. The award is accompanied
by a $25,000 honorarium to be used by the department to
further enhance excellence in teaching. Many other departments, faculty, staff and students are recognized throughout
the year with numerous awards that exemplify our outstanding college. Many of these awards are listed in the Department Sections of this magazine.
One newly created college awards program was established
to recognize CASNR Faculty and Staff members. This awards
program was made possible by the generosity of Chester
“Pots” and Cletus Gilmore, through their estate, and was presented at the culmination of the annual faculty retreat in August 2005. Following are the award categories and recipients:
