Many of us have had a teaching assistant who encouraged us, motivated us and even inspired us to go to graduate school. As graduate students, we may have experienced the responsibility of being an excellent teaching assistant and should recognize those who embody the qualities of an EXCELLENT, AWESOME, STELLAR teaching assistant.
Now YOU have the chance to be recognized or to recognize someone else through the Academic Senate’s Outstanding Teaching Assistant Award. Don’t be shy! Ask a colleague to nominate you. Or take the initiative and nominate someone you know for the award.
