Faculty members who
consistently place University-wide interests on the same level as personal
career and departmental
interests represent a scarce resource that all faculty members treasure.
Their concern with the general welfare protects and nourishes our
individual welfare.
The kinds of corporate activity these University citizens take on give us a secure sense of collective conscience. Faculty governance is the arena in which these citizens serve, and it is faculty government through the Senate Advisory Committee on University Affairs that recognizes their accomplishments with this award.
The Distinguished Faculty Governance Award was established by SACUA in 1986 and is funded by the Alumni Association.
