Richter Awards Nomination
Nominations and accompanying materials for the Jan and Bud
Richter Awards of Excellence in Education are due Feb. 11 in the
Office of the Dean of the Kremen School of Education.
The awards, established by Dr. and Mrs. Richter, recognize
the accomplishments of faculty and staff of the Kremen School.
The three awards are the following:
- The Jan & Bud Richter Award of Excellence in Education
for Faculty in the Kremen School. This Award is for Kremen School
faculty members who have excelled in their field of expertise
and have continually served to promote the mission of the school.
These faculty contributions include excellence in teaching and
preparation of professionals; initiating rigorous and creative
research to advance the knowledge base of the fields of education
and human development; providing academic leadership and the
development of campus programs; developing strong and productive
community-based programs; advocating for students; and establishing
close and collaborative working relationships with teachers,
administrators and professionals in the central valley's schools
and community.
- The Jan & Bud Richter Award of Excellence in Education
for Faculty at California State University, Fresno. This award
is for Fresno State faculty members who are not in the Kremen
School but who are greatly involved with students who have stated
their intent to attain a teacher credential. These faculty members
demonstrate a commitment to the mission of the Kremen School
and through their teaching, research and service, address the
needs of students who will soon become pre-school through 12th-grade
teachers. The faculty member who receives this award provides
students the in-depth knowledge needed in their particular subject
area to teach this material to others, or with pedagogical content
knowledge.
- The Jan & Bud Richter Award of Excellence in Education
for Staff Members in the Kremen School. This award is for staff
members within Kremen School who have demonstrated commitment
to their responsibilities in the school. For many students and
community members the Kremen School staff member is frequently
the only available means to communicate to the school one's needs,
wants, questions, concerns, complaints and compliments. This
award is for staff members who not only provide excellent support
for faculty members, but who advocate for students and also provide
excellence in Kremen School student and community relations.
