Job Summary
The Faculty Development Council (FDC) and the Office of the Provost are pleased to announce the Unit Faculty Excellence Awards and the Valerie Scudder Awards.
OBJECTIVE
These awards are intended to recognize encourage and celebrate Chapman faculty who demonstrate excellence in one or more of the following areas: teaching scholarly-creative activity and service.
AWARDS
Twenty (20) Unit Faculty Excellence Awards may be given each year. Each Excellence award comes with a $1000 honorarium.
Six (6) Valerie Scudder Awards may be given each year. Each Scudder Award comes with an additional $4000 honorarium.
ELIGIBILITY
All full-time faculty are eligible for these awards provided they have not received a Unit Faculty Excellence Award within the past five years. (For example a faculty member who receives an Excellence Award at the faculty honors convocation in May 2025 may not receive another Excellence Award until the faculty honors convocation in May 2030.)
In keeping with the Faculty Constitution individuals qualify as faculty if they have a full-time faculty contract (i.e. non-administrative) and are primarily responsible for teaching and scholarly-creative activity (i.e. more than 50% of load). In the determination of eligibility the nominees dean shall have final say.
NOMINATION AND SELECTION
Unit Faculty Excellence Award As a matter of faculty governance the faculty within each unit determine how individuals are to be nominated and selected for Excellence Awards. The process should be fair and the case of disputes the Senate Executive Board (SEB) shall determine whether a units nomination and selection process is appropriate.
Valerie Scudder Award All winners of Unit Faculty Excellence Awards will be considered for Valerie Scudder Awards provided the unit notifies the FDC of its awardees and provides letters of support prior to the deadline.
