CoJMC faculty, staff honored for contributions to students

Sunday, February 1, 2015 - 6:00pm

The University of Nebraska–Lincoln Teaching Council and University of Nebraska–Lincoln Parents Association honored nine faculty and staff from the College of Journalism and Mass Communications at an annual recognition ceremony on Jan. 30, 2015.

Certificates of recognition for contributions to students were given during the ceremony. The awards provide positive feedback to campus faculty and staff about the work they do with students. The honors also encourage the goal of good student and faculty relationships and provide recognition in an area often overlooked in the formal rewards system.

The Parents Association solicits nominations through an annual mailing, asking parents to nominate a faculty or staff employee who has made a significant difference in their student’s life. Nominations include a short explanation of why this person was nominated.

All who were nominated by at least one parent or student and who are still with the university received a certificate.

The 2014-2015 recipients are listed below. Numbers in parentheses indicate the years a recipient has received the award.
