The Williams Council has extended the deadline for nominations for fellowships to March 17.

The Williams Fellows program enhances our campus’s awareness of the importance of balancing effective teaching and significant research. Fellowships are awarded to recipients who have demonstrated extraordinary commitment to undergraduate education by challenging their students academically, creating an engaged learning environment, striving to improve the learning process and promoting interdepartmental collaboration.

Fellows receive a $5,000 award, as well as $5,000 dedicated to affecting the teaching and learning experience of undergraduates in the fellow’s department. The deadline for instruction proposals, a companion program of the Williams Council, has closed for this academic year.
