Award for Distinguished College or University Teaching

As established by the MAA Board of Governors, the Northeastern Section Award for Distinguished College or University Teaching is made to a teacher of mathematics at the post-secondary level who has been widely recognized as extraordinarily successful. His/her teaching effectiveness must be documented and must have had influence beyond their own classroom. Recipients must be members of the MAA and be teaching in the Northeastern Section. Recipients of this award are automatically nominated for the Haimo Award, the national MAA award for distinguished teaching.

The recipient is normally announced at the Spring Meeting and is invited to speak at the Fall Meeting.

The next deadline for nominations is January 15, 2010. The NES/MAA Nomination Guidelines and Nomination Form for 2010 are available. Composition of the committee is described here.
