Faculty Excellence Award Nominations

Nov 3, 2017 | Student News

Nominate today: Faculty Excellence Awards Deadline is December 15.

Have NMC instructors made a difference in your life? Could “dedicated,” “innovative” and “excellent” be used to describe them? If you are looking for a way to recognize the impact an NMC teacher has had on your learning journey, please consider nominating that teacher for the Faculty Excellence awards. Faculty are truly honored to be nominated for these annual awards. This is the highest teaching honor awarded at NMC and nominations can only come from students. 

Nominations can be submitted here. 

Initiated by a contribution from longtime NMC benefactors Harold and Imogene Wise in 1970 and first awarded to a full-time faculty member in 1971, recipients are chosen by a student selection committee, and award criteria includes teaching excellence, rapport with students, innovation in the classroom and a sense of dedication.
