Excellence in Teaching, Learning and Service Award
What It Is
The Excellence in Teaching, Learning, and Service Award was created to recognize
and stimulate the innovative work of faculty at Cascadia. Made possible through
the generosity of the community served by Cascadia Community College and support
from Washington State's Exceptional Faculty Awards legislation, the first ETLS
Award of $1,000 will be presented in Spring 2007.
History
In July, 2005, Cascadia Community College and the Cascadia Community College
Federation of Teachers established the Excellence in Teaching, Learning, and
Service Award. Later that year the Cascadia Community College Foundation hosted
an event to launch an ETLS Award endowment. Nearly $24,000 in private donations
was raised at the event. Combined with other contributions to the Foundation and
matched by a dedicated state fund through the Washington State Board for
Community and Technical Colleges, a $60,000 ETLS Endowment Fund was established.
How It Works
Every year nominations of faculty to be considered for the award will be
solicited. Any member of the Cascadia community may nominate. A committee of
faculty peers will review all nominations and select the recipient(s) based on
nominees' excellence in primary assignments, service to students, service to
profession, and professional contributions to college and community.
