Скачать или смотреть University of North Dakota Appoints Two Chester Fritz Distinguished Professors (2015)

The University of North Dakota has named Sharon Carson, Professor of English, and Cindy Lee Juntunen, Professor of Counseling Psychology and Community Services, as Chester Fritz Distinguished Professors, which is UND's highest academic honor.
Carson and Juntunen learned of the honors, when each received a surprise visit by UND President Robert O. Kelley and Vice President for Academic Affairs/Provost Thomas DiLorenzo.
Juntunen and Carson join the 73 other UND faculty members, who, over the years, have received the Chester Fritz Distinguished Professorship Award.
They will officially receive their awards at UND’s General Commencement Ceremony on Saturday, May 16 at the Alerus Center.
The Chester Fritz Distinguished Professorships were established with an endowment gift from the late UND benefactor Chester Fritz, 1892-1983. Revenue from the endowment provides for cash stipends to one or more full-time UND faculty members, who thereafter may use the title "Chester Fritz Distinguished Professor."
A selection committee appointed by the Provost provides specific recommendations for individuals whom should be awarded the Chester Fritz Professorship based on selection criteria:
-Demonstrated achievement across research, teaching, and service with significant national or regional recognition in any one of these missions.
-Significant professional contributions throughout his/her career. However, the basis for selection of Chester Fritz Professors will be heavily weighted toward one’s accomplishments at UND.
-Recognition by University of North Dakota colleagues as a faculty member who has made a valuable contribution to the quality of UND’s academic programs.
-Fulltime member of the faculty which includes all ranked teaching and research personnel. Department chairs are eligible if he/she is a full-time member of the faculty. (Full-time administrators, e.g., vice-presidents and deans, are not eligible).
