Chamber of Commerce NDSU Distinguished Faculty Service Award

The nomination deadline is February 22, 2025.

The Chamber of Commerce NDSU Distinguished Faculty Service Award award has been designed to recognize NDSU faculty members who have attained distinction in their profession.

In evaluating nominees for this high honor, the committee will especially focus on the nominee's substantial service contributions to the community and the region, in addition to their achievement as scholars, teachers, and/or artists during their time at NDSU. Such service activities may be in the form of active participation or leadership in volunteer organizations that serve the community and the region, or activities that directly benefit the community. (See http://www.fmchamber.com/ for a list of further examples of community service.) 

To nominate a faculty member for this award, submit a nomination letter (of no more than two pages) addressing the criteria, letters of support (no more than two letters), and three-page CV by email to Ann Fredrickson.

Recipients of these awards are expected to be NDSU employees at the time of the Celebration of Faculty Excellence ceremony.
