Wall of Fame Award Winners in Teaching

Each year, the Faculty Center asks graduates to appoint faculty to the Wall of Fame for two separate categories, teaching and/or advising. For excellence in teaching, graduates are asked which faculty member had the greatest impact on their learning and overall development at Rowan? For excellence in advising, they are asked which faculty member or advisor assisted them beyond their expectations with their academic advisement? Graduates are asked to briefly describe the reasons for their selections in a letter.
