Promoting Intellectual Engagement Award

2010 Recipients

This award honors instructors who inspire excitement, inquiry, and autonomy in first-year courses. 

Recipients of the PIE Award are nominated on-line by sophomore students, and then selected by a committee based on thoughtfulness and volume of student nominations.  Student's descriptions of nominees reveal the heart of excellence in lower-division instruction, courses that comprise the foundation of students' college experience and the crucial seed of intellectual self-awareness.
 
Recipients were honored at a reception Wednesday, April 7th at 4:00.  The PIE Award is co-sponsored by Ellbogen CTL, LeaRN, and Residence Life & Dining.  The purpose of the PIE award is to increase the focus on instructors who teach first-year students.
