There are many outstanding mathematics educators in the Ohio
Section, and one way to recognize them for their excellence is
to nominate them for the Ohio Section Award for Distinguished
College or University Teaching of Mathematics. If you know of
such an excellent educator, please consider nominating him or
her for this honor.
To make a nomination, complete the one-page nomination form,
write a description of why you have chosen to nominate this
individual, and solicit recommendations from colleagues and
current or former students. Nomination forms and detailed
instructions are available from the Ohio MAA Website at
http://sections.maa.org/ohio/Award/.
Nominees must be members of the MAA and the Ohio Section, and
they must have more than seven years of teaching experience in
the mathematical sciences at the college/university level.
The award will be presented at the 2022 Spring Meeting of the
Ohio Section, and appropriate publicity will be generated at the
winner’s home institution. The nomination deadline is
January 1, 2022.The winner will be included in the pool of
potential Ohio Section’s nominees for the MAA’s 2023 Deborah and
Franklin Tepper Haimo Award for Distinguished College or
University Teaching of Mathematics. Past Ohio Section
winners who have gone on to receive the Haimo Award are Aparna
Higgins (University of Dayton, 2005) and V. Frederick Rickey
(Bowling Green State University, 1993).
