For Part-time faculties in the Composition Program

(Sponsored by the Dept. of English Bonnie Endowment)

All Current Part-time faculties are Eligible to be Nominated or Self-Nominated for an Excellence in Teaching Award.

Part-time faculties who wish to be considered for the award should submit a teaching portfolio to Linda Baldwin by August 1, 2019. The teaching portfolio, not to exceed 25 pages, should include:

  • A statement giving permission for the Awards Committee to view your two most recent sets of online student evaluations 
  • Optional: additional supporting materials (for example, letters from colleagues, faculty supervisors, or students)

Based on their evaluation of these teaching portfolios, the Awards Committee will select finalists and the winner or winners of the award. The Awards Committee includes the Director of Composition, an Assistant Director of Composition, and the previous year’s Part-time faculty Award winner or winners. All finalists will receive official recognition. The winner or winners of the award will be announced at the start of the Fall Semester and will share the $150 prize. Previous winners can be nominated every three years.

Honoring and recognizing the many fine Part-time faculties who continue to support the Composition Program at the University of Louisville underscore the importance of their contribution and our appreciation for their efforts. Please contact Andrea Olinger, Director of Composition, with any questions.
