Nomination Process
The process for nominating individuals for the Faculty Service Award varies. Some departments nominate individuals, and Colleges may have their own processes for selecting nominees. There is also an open call for nominations in the form of a Qualtrics Survey. A faculty member, staff member, a college, an academic department or program may nominate someone for this award. Any individual nominated must be a tenured or tenure-track faculty member and must not be a previous recipient of this award.

-
A letter of nomination no longer than two typed letter-sized pages.
-
A narrative of no longer than three typed pages describing the significance of the candidate's service activities.
