Myra Hale Walters Faculty Excellence Awards
Myra Hale Walters
Upon nearly 37 years as a professor, faculty leader, and advocate of professional development and engagement, Myra Hale Walters' name was bestowed upon three unique awards. Professor Walters' commitment to teaching excellence, her tireless service to the college and community, and her lifelong scholarship and willingness to help develop the knowledge and skills of her colleagues is the inspiration for these awards and demonstrate the highest level of achievement in all categories.
The purpose of the FSW Myra Hale Walters Faculty Excellence Awards is to recognize the contributions of outstanding full-time faculty members in the areas of teaching and instruction, college and community service, and professional development and scholarship. Faculty excellence award recipients will be honored during a special occasion to recognize faculty and will receive a plaque, a certificate denoting excellence.
Recipient names will be forwarded to the National Institute for Staff and Organizational Development (NISOD) for national recognition, and will be eligible to attend NISOD's International Conference on Teaching and Leadership Excellence.
The three awards are as follows:
- FSW Faculty Teaching and Instruction Excellence Award recognizing full-time faculty who have exceeded the expectations for Teaching and Instruction
- FSW College, Profession or Community Service Excellence Award recognizing full-time faculty who have exceeded the standards for College and Community Service
- FSW Professional Development and Scholarship Excellence Award recognizing full-time faculty who have exceeded the standards for Professional Development and Scholarship
Faculty nominations are accepted year-round for all three awards. The final cut-off date for faculty nominations for 2022 is Friday, November 4th, 2022 by 11:59pm. Nominations received after that date will be eligible for the next award cycle.
