The Academic Advising Council Subcommittee or the York Campus Senate is seeking nominations for the 2011-12 Academic Advising Award. Each year an Academic Advising Award is presented at the Penn State York annual awards banquet to a faculty member who has excelled in his or her advising of students.
Penn State York values quality academic advising. The Academic Advising Award recognizes the efforts of an adviser who has made a positive difference in students’ academic careers. Advisers often contribute significantly to the success and growth of students at York, and it is important that advisers be recognized for their contributions.
The faculty member chosen for this award is selected by a committee of three former recipients of the award, plus two student members. This committee depends on nominations and supporting information that is provided by students. The members of the committee urge you to nominate a faculty member whom you feel has done an exceptional job of advising. It is also extremely helpful when you can provide reasons why you think the faculty member should receive the award.
Prior award recipients (Ali Kara, Orsay Kucukemiroglu, and Harley Hartman) and staff of the Advising and Career Center (Andrew Caldwell and Jane Emery) are not eligible for the award.
The Academic Advising Council Subcommittee encourages active participation of the campus community in the selection process.
Thank you for your response and participation in the selection process. Please submit the form below, or print out the form and return your nomination to the faculty staff assistant on the second floor of M.S. Grumbacher Information Sciences and Technology Center (ISTC) or to the staff assistant to director of Academic Affairs in the John J. Romano Administration Building. Please ask the staff assistant to place your nomination in Ali Kara's mailbox. Nominations must be received by Friday, February 24, 2012, at 5:00 p.m.
