Welcome to the faculty Web site!
This Web site recognizes faculty achievements by featuring our current faculty award winners. It provides basic information, and links to more detailed information, to help faculty members with their responsibilities in teaching, research and service. Finally, the Web site may also help to communicate University standards and expectations to the faculty. The site starts with items of potential interest to all faculty members and continues with items that may be of interest to specific categories of faculty. If you have suggestions for additions or changes to the Web site, please contact Fran McSweeney.
