Great Teacher Awards ive Temple University faculty members received the Great Teacher Awards for 1994. A ceremony was held on Monday, November 21 in Feinstone Lounge, Sullivan Hall at Berks and Park Malls on the Main Campus. The awards are believed to be the largest given by a college or university for the recognition of excellence in teaching -- a $10,000 cash prize for each recipient. The Great Teacher Awards were established in 1988. As President Peter J. Liacouras said, Temple has many great teachers. In honoring five of them, we reaffirm our belief in and support for teaching as the heart and soul of Temple University. What exactly makes one a Great Teacher? This year ' s awardees represent widely differing fields — dance, adolescent psychology, business management, physics, and educational statistics — and the literally volumes of accolades from co-workers and students accompanying their nominations echo similar themes: a mastery of their subject, a lively, enthusiastic teaching style, and a genuine concern for students, which includes being easily accessible to them. -Sis- v K . $fytcbujX (article and biographical information: courtesy of Temple University News Bureau) Outsts 154 Gret Teachers- Forster, Hilsendager, Morano, Steinberg, Hamilton (photo by Dias)
