It's February at UCSB, which means that UCSB's Graduate Student Association wants to honor the "Titans of Teaching" in our community. Toward that end, they are now accepting nominations for the GSA's Excellence in Teaching Award.
Anyone on campus can nominate a teaching assistant or teaching associate for this award. Last year, over one hundred eligible nominees were submitted. To be eligible, a Teaching Assistant or Teaching Associate must have taught at least one quarter during Spring 2014, Summer 2014, Fall 2014, or Winter 2014. Former award winners are ineligible.
Nominations will be accepted in four categories:
Lecturers and Teaching Associates (all disciplines);
Teaching Assistants (Humanities and Fine Arts);
Teaching Assistants (Social Sciences);
Teaching Assistants (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics).
Nominations are due by Friday, March 27 at 5 p.m. To nominate someone, fill out the nomination form. For any questions, please visit the GSA's ETA webpage, or contact Alex Pucher, the VP of Academic Affairs, at vpacademic@ucsbgsa.org.
