"CSN proudly presents its NISOD Excellence Award 2008 recipients"
Since its inception in 1978, the National Institute for Staff and Organizational Development (NISOD) has emphasized the importance of teaching and leadership excellence in institutions of higher education. NISOD has worked to serve, engage, and inspire teachers and leaders through conferences, publications, web services, partnerships, programs, and more. In 1989, in connection with a University of Texas national study of teaching excellence, NISOD hosted its first ceremony, held in conjunction with the annual International Conference on Teaching and Leadership Excellence, honoring and naming the individuals featured in this study as recipients of the NISOD Excellence Award.
This year the NISOD Excellence Awards will be awarded during the International Conference on Teaching and Leadership Excellence during May 25-28, 2008, in Austin, Texas. At CSN the award recipients are nominated by their peers and/or supervisors. The selection is made by the CSN Awards Committee, which currently consists of Brenda Talley, Tina Holcomb, Evelyn Doody, Doug Baker, Rachel Bennett, and Maria Gonzalez. We thank the Committee for their work in selecting such a wonderful group of CSN professionals to be recognized at the national level.
