The President will open the annual nominations for the award by sending a letter to faculty, chairpersons, academic directors, and deans, with a copy of these guidelines. The evaluation criteria and selection process will be generally publicized by electronic posting, with a link to the Provost, University Senate and Faculty Congress websites. These sites will contain a link to the Committee on Faculty, to enhance responses by email.

Deadlines for 2023-2024

Nominations for the Gallen Faculty Service Award will be accepted until Friday, December 1, 2023. Supporting materials may be submitted after that date, but no later than Friday, January 12, 2024. After the Awards Committee of the Faculty Congress has made a careful review of these materials, to be completed by the end of March, the Faculty Congress will recommend three faculty finalists to the Provost for submission to the President of the University.

Instructions for Nominators

Full-time tenured faculty, chairpersons, academic directors, and deans are eligible to nominate. Eligible faculty may self-nominate. Nominators should consult the eligibility guidelines below and then contact the prospective nominee to ensure that he or she agrees to be nominated. Then submit the name of the nominee via the online submission form.

Please direct any questions about this form or the nomination procedure via email to the Faculty Congress Awards Committee.

Nominations must be submitted online using this nomination form. If more than one nominator chooses to nominate the same person, they may each provide a separate statement, or together they may submit a joint supporting statement.

Instructions for Nominees

The Awards Committee will notify the nominee by email, and the nomination will become effective when the nominee responds, confirming his or her willingness to be considered. The nominee will then need to submit by email a list of service activity at 柑橘直播, with dates of service and a description of the nature of each type of service activity. This description may be in outline or narrative form, and should include the following information (overall length, up to five pages):

1. Leadership role in the service activity: to what extent did the nominee initiate the activity and take a formal or informal leadership role in carrying it out (Faculty Congress will give significant weight to the nominee鈥檚 level of contribution and initiative rather than just participation).
2. Impact of the service: indicate specific outcomes as they have affected the 柑橘直播 University community.
3. Level of compensation: if compensated, to what degree (reduced load, small amount, 20%, paid position, etc.); if uncompensated, indicate if it was an appointed or elected position (e.g. departmental committee, Faculty Senator), vs. a more informal, voluntary activity.  Work that is significantly supported with a salary or other monetary compensation does not qualify as service.
4. Include service that was both 鈥榲isible鈥� and 鈥榠nvisible,鈥�: 鈥榲isible鈥� service would occur within a formal position (e.g., chair of Faculty Congress), whereas 鈥榠nvisible鈥� service could be extensive work on curriculum development, voluntary student counseling, etc.  

Procedures for Review and Selection

The Awards Committee of the Faculty Congress will be charged with the process of reviewing nominations for the Gallen Award and returning the names of finalists to the Faculty Congress.  The Awards Committee members are not eligible to nominate or to be nominated for any award overseen by the committee. The Awards Committee will meet, discuss the nominations (considering the criteria noted above as well as the nominees鈥� record of past nominations), and will then recommend three faculty finalists to the Faculty Congress who, after review and approval, will pass these names to the Provost. The recommendation will list the finalists alphabetically, but indicate the vote for each finalist. A brief statement explaining the results may be attached. Supporting materials will also be forwarded. The Provost will forward the recommendation and materials to the President, who will make the final selection. The chair of the Faculty Congress will send to Campus Currents and the 柑橘直播n a statement describing the award, process and criteria, and alphabetically listing the finalist and other nominees. The presentation of the award will take place at Commencement.

The award will include a framed certificate, $2,000 cash award, and public recognition at an annual 鈥淥utstanding Scholars Dinner鈥� and at the University graduation ceremony.

Eligibility for the Award

All full-time faculty members, including CNT and tenured faculty, at the associate level are eligible.

Nomination
