Walker and Doris Allen Fellowship for Faculty Excellence Accepting Nominations

The Vice President’s Office is now accepting nominations for the 2005-2006 Walker and Doris Allen Fellowship for Faculty Excellence. The Allens established the Fellowship with one of the largest outright gifts ever made to the Truman State University Foundation. The $10,000 Walker and Doris Allen Fellowships recognize outstanding faculty members who have exemplarily contributed to the success of the University and its students. Up to three faculty members are selected each year.

The Fellowships are open to all tenured or tenure-track faculty who have completed at least four years of full-time service at Truman. Faculty may be nominated for the Fellowship by Truman faculty colleagues, academic divisions, or disciplines.

To nominate an eligible faculty member, send a letter of nomination to the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs addressed to the Allen Fellowship Selection Committee. The letter of nomination should be no longer than one page and should address how you believe the faculty member fulfills the selection criteria. Please deliver a signed hardcopy of the letter to McClain Hall 203, or send it through campus mail or by fax to 785.7460. Visit http://www.truman.edu/pages/125.asp for details, including the selection criteria.

Nominations are due to the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs by Sept. 30. Contact Erika Woehlk at ewoehlk@truman.edu for additional information.
