Glennan Fellows nomination deadline extended to March 4

Individuals planning to nominate faculty members for a Glennan Fellowship for 2013–14 now have more time to submit their materials, as the nomination deadline is now March 4.

The Glennan Fellows are perceived as role models for new faculty members at Case Western Reserve University, and the program is designed to identify and reward promising junior faculty and to facilitate their growth as teacher/scholars. Fellowships will be awarded based on evidence of promise for a balanced career in both teaching and scholarship and on the proposals that are submitted by the nominees.

Glennan Fellows must be regular faculty members who are in the tenure track but not yet tenured. Glennan Fellows also must be untenured during the year they hold their fellowships.

To nominate a faculty member, any colleague or the nominee him/herself must submit a letter to UCITE. Nomination letters must be no longer than a single page and must be signed by two faculty members other than the nominee. The signed nominating letter should be received by UCITE by Monday, March 4. Once nominated, the nominee is then responsible for submitting a proposal to UCITE by Friday, March 22.
