The ARC Excellence Award recognizes instructional staff members who demonstrate exemplary service to ARC students and staff. These instructors go above and beyond what is required to make courses accessible, maintain professionalism while interacting with ARC students and ARC staff, exercise sensitivity to a diverse student population, integrate or apply universal design principles into instruction or service delivery, and more.
We invite you to nominate these instructors, so that we might honor their dedication and commitment.
Nominations for the 2023-2024 academic year are now open! Deadline to submit is end of day on May 8th.
We will celebrate the Awardees in Fall 2024, and we hope you will attend! Watch for more information as we near September 2024.
