The Council on Academic Affairs discussed the selection committee for the 2019 Faculty Laureate and added four items to their agenda Thursday.

The Faculty Laureate is selection through nominations of Eastern professors who fit into the position’s criteria of being a full-time teaching faculty member, demonstrates ongoing commitment to excellence in teaching classes in the general education curriculum, and applications from traditionally under-represented groups are encouraged.

Nominations should include a letter of nomination, no longer than 500 words, no more than three letters of recommendation, all available information regarding student evaluations from general education courses for the last three years, a list of general education courses taught in the last three years and a statement from the nominee on the value of general/liberal education, not to exceed 300 words.

Four items were added to the items to be acted upon for the next CAA meeting on March 28.
