OUTSTANDING TEACHING AWARD
Each year, Honors students have the opportunity to commemorate one professor for excellence in teaching.

This year's winner of the Outstanding Teaching Award is Dr. Susan McFadden of the Psychology Department!
University Honors Student Association members Alyssa Brunner and Shane Conner announced Dr. McFadden's triumph at the Honors Graduation Ceremony on May 7, 2012.
