Faculty Awards
Over the years a variety of faculty have been given special acknowledgement. In 1995 two special faculty awards were established for CSB and SJU faculty:
Sister Mary Grell Teacher of Distinction Award for CSB faculty
Robert L. Spaeth Teacher of Distinction Award for SJU faculty.
In 2000, CSB and SJU established the Teacher/Scholar Award which may be given to a faculty member on both campuses. In 2004, following the untimely death of Linda Mealey, Professor of Psychology and 2002 recipient of the award, it was re-named in her honor.
Also in 2000, CSB and SJU established the Tom Creed Memorial Award for effective electronic pedagogy. It was first awarded in 2001.
In 2008, Linda Kulzer, OSB received the Gender Education and Development Award.
More information on these awards is available in box AC 07.70 Box 01 in the CSB College Archives.
