On April 20th, several faculty members will be recognized for their outstanding contributions to Indiana State University at the Faculty Recognition Banquet.
Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs Christopher J. Olsen. “The excellence that our faculty demonstrate every day in their scholarship and creative work, their teaching in and out of the classroom, and in their service to the university and the profession underscores what sets ISU apart. It’s our faculty who provide the world-class experiences that ISU students receive. The chance to work so closely with faculty of this caliber is something that many, perhaps most colleges and universities cannot match. Many thanks to all of our fantastic faculty, and special congratulations to this year’s award winners.”
Each winner will receive a stipend and an award.
