Nominations for the Outstanding Achievement Award

The AAUP invites nominations for the 2020 Outstanding Achievement Award, which was established in 2016 by combining three previous awards honoring Beatrice Konheim, William Tacey, and Al Sumberg. In recognition of the outstanding efforts of these individuals on behalf of AAUP principles, the award goes to an individual AAUP member for outstanding chapter- or conference-level work in advancing academic freedom or shared governance; promoting the economic security of academics; helping the higher education community organize; or ensuring higher education's contribution to the common good.

The award, a certificate of recognition, includes a monetary award in the amount of $500, which may be split among multiple winners.

Nominations are due by March 15, 2020. Please enter your contact information in the form, as well as the required information about the nominee. Please contact Mariah Quinn (mquinn@aaup.org) for more information.
