Distinguished Scholar-Teacher Award Recipients
The Distinguished Scholar-Teacher Program, established in 1978, honors a small number of faculty members each year who have demonstrated notable success in both scholarship and teaching. Distinguished Scholar-Teachers make a public presentation on a topic within their scholarly discipline, and receive an honorarium of $5000 to support their professional activities. For more information, call the Office of Faculty Affairs at 301.405.0658.
