Is there a professor at Queens whose care and enthusiasm has molded and perhaps has even changed your life? The Hunter-Hamilton Love of Teaching Award seeks to honor that professor.
Nominations are now being accepted for 2010.
Award recipients receive $15,000, half of which is awarded directly to the individual and half to an academic program or department of the recipient’s choosing. Past winners include Richard Crown (2009), Professor Phyllis Pharr (2008), Dr. Emily Seelbinder (2007) and Dr. Charles Reed (2006). The 2010 winner will be announced at Commencement in May.
