MSU Teaching Awards announced

On Wednesday, March 15, the annual MSU Teaching Awards were held in the CIBC Banquet Hall at the Student Centre.

The MSU Teaching Awards is a student run service that allows students to vote for their favourite professor. This could be a professor that best challenged them, motivated them, or simply took the time to connect with the students.

The MSU Teaching Awards committee is designed to recognize and encourage excellence in teaching at McMaster University by awarding MSU Teaching Awards, on behalf of all MSU members.

This year's winners were:

Social Work

Chris Sinding

Humanities

David Clark

Social Sciences

Phil Triadafilopoulos

Health Science

John Vickers

Science

Murray Junop

Engineering

Alan Wassyng

Nursing

Clint Betts

Commerce

Teal McAteer-Early

Kinesiology

Phil White

Jean Wilson

This year's Lifetime Achievement Award was given to Michael Stein. Lifetime Achievement Awards are presented to one or more instructors who have shown dedication to teaching at McMaster University for at least ten years, have been nominated for an MSU Teaching Award in the past and are close to retirement. This award recognizes the significant contribution by an instructor to the McMaster community due to their proven years of outstanding teaching but also considers their contributions to academia.
