Teaching.&nbsp; I am recommending that we create a new annual award for
Excellence in Research and Scholarly and Creative Activities, as a way to celebrate
the research that does happen here and as a way to encourage more faculty to be

stuck on the mechanism we should propose to choose the recipients.&nbsp; We have
six different schools and the committee members think it would be difficult to
decide what constitutes excellent scholarship in diverse areas such as
journalism, biology, drama and education.&nbsp; &nbsp;On the other hand, I
really would prefer not to have a specified rotation among the schools, with
recipients chosen by the Dean, because I think the award should be open to
anyone every year and chosen by an institutional committee.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
