Central Michigan University has a long and proud tradition of excellence in teaching. The faculty of Central Michigan University has maintained this tradition by setting high standards in demanding competence of all its members. At the same time, however, there are occasions when faculty members exceed the usual standards and expectations.
The Academic Senate believes that such occasions and individuals should receive special recognition and has therefore established the annual CMU Excellence in Teaching Awards, directed by the Excellence in Teaching Awards Committee (ETAC) and supported by the Office of the Provost and the Office of Curriculum and Instructional Support.
