Distinguished Teaching Award
Each year, the Mathematical Association of American (MAA) honors outstanding educators from each section with the MAA section award for excellence in undergraduate teaching. As of fall 2024, the name of this award will expand to honor Dr. Carol Crawford of the US Naval Academy, as her generous bequest supports this award being given yearly to one faculty member in each of the 29 sections of the MAA. Consider nominating a deserving candidate for this award.
