At its April 11 meeting at Towson University, the UniversitySystem of Maryland Board of Regents will present theRegents' Faculty Awards for Excellence. This year, theRegents will recognize 11 faculty members from institutionsacross the USM for their outstanding contributions in one ofseven areas: collaboration, mentoring, public service,teaching, research, scholarship, and creative activity."These 11 educators, recommended by the Regents FacultyAward Committee, are an example for every person in highereducation," said Clifford M. Kendall, chairman of the Board."Through their hard work, dedication, and creativeendeavors, they have shown that for teachers and studentsalike, real learning knows no boundaries. The Board ispleased to bestow its highest honor upon them."Each recipient of an award for mentoring, public service,teaching, and research, scholarship, and creative activitywill receive $1,000 and a plaque of recognition for thehonor. Each recipient of an award for interinstitutionalcollaboration will receive $500 and a plaque.The Board of Regents established the Faculty Awards in 1995to publicly recognize distinguished performance by educatorsand researchers within the University System. The RegentsFaculty Award Committee, made up of faculty from the USM'sresearch and comprehensive institutions as well as onemember from the System office staff, receives nominationsfrom the president of each institution, along with thenominees' portfolios. The portfolios provided documentationof outstanding performance, during the last three years, inthe award category for which the faculty member wasnominated. Each nominee must have served as a USM facultymember for at least five years.This year's award winners for Excellence in USMInterinstitutional Collaboration are:Judith M. Stribling, associate professor of biology at Salisbury University, and Gian Gupta, professor of environmental sciences and chemistry in the Department of Natural Sciences at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore. Stribling and Gupta lead the nationally recognized undergraduate dual degree program in environment/marine science and biology at their respective institutions. Ten years ago, UMES and Salisbury began a collaborative program that took advantage of their existing strengths and avoided the costs of duplicating a program offered at a nearby institution. Stribling was assigned by Salisbury University to coordinate and strengthen the program in 1997, and she found a ready ally in Gupta, who has led the UMES side of the effort since 1991. Both Gupta and Stribling teach a fullload of courses and advise more than 25 students. Gupta supervises graduate students and serves in the faculty governance organizations at UMES, while Stribling volunteers for several regional conservation groups, supervises undergraduate research, and advises the Bioenvirons Club. Recognized nationally in 1998 by the Theodore M. Hesburgh Award for collaborative programming between a predominantly white campus and a historically black institution, the UMES-Salisbury dual degree program is an example of the kind of collaboration that can be achieved within the USM family of institutions.This year's award winner for Excellence in Mentoring is:Noel Myricks, associate professor in the Department of Family Studies at the University of Maryland, College Park (UMCP). Over the past three decades, Myricks, an educator and lawyer, has mentored students from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds, demanding quality and setting standards that will prove incalculably valuable for students in their careers and personal lives. Myricks has encouraged promising students, many of whom are minorities, to go to law school or graduate school, and to pursue other professionalendeavors. Under his guidance, the University Mock TrialProgram has produced nine consecutive regional championshipsand five national championships. His work has enhanced theundergraduate experience, enriched student lives, andadvanced the educational mission of the institution.This year's award winners for Excellence in Public Service are:E. Wendy Saul, professor of education at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC). Because of their unique professional concern with education, all faculty members in the Department of Education are expected to draw on their expertise, training, and experience to perform service that benefits the public. The scope, intensity, quality, andimpact of Saul's public service surpass even the highestexpectations of her department and her national andinternational peers. Saul's career is based on listening tothose voices too often ignored - encouraging them to presenttheir findings in larger forums or in publications, andsupporting teacher research within their own classrooms. Herinsights into teaching and learning include the linkagebetween literacy and science, meaning and inquiry, andreadiness and learning and their application to schools. Shehas promoted critical thinking and active learning amongyoung students by developing an annual Kids InquiryConference, held at UMBC each summer, and engaged in serviceto the educational community by active participation on manyboards and in numerous organizations that promote inquiry,education, and teaching. Saul also has received praise forher international service. Since 1997, she has volunteeredwith the Reading and Writing for Critical Thinking projectin Lithuania and Azerbaijan as an expert teacher trainer.The project, a collaboration of George Soros' Open SocietyInstitute and the International Reading Association, is aprofessional development program to assist teachers from 28countries to change classroom teaching practices at allgrade levels.Warren D. Tewes, assistant professor in the School ofDentistry at the University of Maryland, Baltimore. Tewes, afull member of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences, isa volunteer dental consultant to the Maryland State Officeof the Chief Medical Examiner and a member of the federalDisaster Mortuary Operations Response Team. Each time he iscalled to the grim task of dental identification, he knowsthat he is assisting a distressed and grieving family. Inthis spirit, he has participated in making over 100identifications in the past three years. In addition to hisforensic odontology work with the medical examiner, Teweshas helped the state to establish the Maryland DentalDatabase for Missing and Unidentified Persons. A centralrepository of dental records for missing persons allowspolice to compare reports from families with unidentifiedpersons. The key to success has been the inter-organizationcommunications between the Medical Examiners Office, theMaryland State Police, and the Maryland State DentalAssociation. Working with the Forensic Dentistry Committee,Tewes has solicited volunteer participation so that astatewide network has at least one dentist assigned to eachcounty. Because of the acclaim that he received working inthese areas, he was asked to be the volunteer forensicdental representative on the Forensic Advisory Board at theNational Center for Missing and Exploited Children inAlexandria, VA. There, he developed simplified dentalcharting schemes for non-dental first responders that can befaxed globally in a crisis times. Beginning September 12,2001, Tewes worked with 40 other team members for two weeksto process the remains of the 44 passengers and crew ofUnited Airlines Flight 93.Memo Diriker, associate professor of marketing in the Franklin P. Perdue School of Business at Salisbury University. Diriker has been a tireless contributor to many endeavors that have enriched the Eastern Shore's quality of life. Residents of the Eastern Shore feel an attachment to Salisbury University because of Diriker. They may read his weekly newspaper column, may have seen him interviewed on television, or may make use of his annual Regional Economic Forecast. They may own a business that used him as a consultant, belong to the same civic organization, or speak Spanish and appreciate his initiation of Bienvenidos a Delmarva. Diriker's community involvement affects his classroom, becoming a basis for case studies, studentprojects, and further research. Under his guidance, thestudent chapter of the Perdue School's American MarketingAssociation won its first national awards. Awareness of theneed to apply his extensive knowledge of economic andmarketing principles to understand and solve public sectorchallenges has spurred him to develop online learningmodules and to use technology to help diverse communitiescommunicate.This year's winners of the award for Excellence in Teaching are:Spencer Benson, associate professor of cell biology and molecular genetics at the University of Maryland, College Park. A longtime advocate of undergraduate education, he has been a key contributor to the overall design and monitoring of College Park's general education courses and an active participant in the Center for Teaching Excellence. Benson was a member of the faculty group that launched the innovative, team-taught, interdisciplinary World Courses. He co-designed and co-delivered a novel course focusing on the Nile River, viewed through the prism of the geopolitical and engineering challenges accompanying the construction of the Aswan Dam and the economic and ecological consequences of the construction. He also has helped shape science education in the state as part of the University Task Force on K-16 Education. Practicing what he preaches, Benson is participating in a $7.5 million National Science Foundation grant to improve instruction and middle-school student achievement in science. His undergraduate teaching involves large and small classes, both for life-science majors and non-majors. He routinely holds workshops on teaching for graduate students and works with graduate assistants to develop their teaching skills. As he has continued to innovate in his courses, he has also published extensively and, as invited speaker, shared his findings at many national conferences and workshops.Kimberly Hunter, assistant professor of biological sciences in the Richard A. Henson School of Science and Technology at Salisbury University. Hunter is a leader in engaging Salisbury's biology majors as well as students from other disciplines in learning about biology, botany in particular, through undergraduate research. She has mentored more than 140 students in various research projects since she arrived on campus in 1997. Hunter teaches the required complement of three or four courses each semester, advises 30 students, and fulfills expectations for university and community service. What separates top-tier scientists from the rest is their capacity for asking important questions. Hunter helps her students learn how to recognize those importantquestions, and how to ask them. About 20 students areinvolved in research each semester working on one of fiveprojects, with two to five students on each project. Eachproject involves field collection of plant samples, moderngenetic analysis, intensive literature research, grantwriting, lab work, data analysis, and project presentationof work. In some cases a paper may be produced for peerreview. All projects focus on population genetics and usesimilar DNA analysis techniques. Hunter regularly checkseach group's progress, and demonstrates proper labtechniques to a few students who teach others. Experience inthis efficiently run laboratory helps students discover orraise their career goals, learn skills that are immediatelyuseful in industry or graduate school, and contribute theirindependent effort to a group project.Lea Ramsdell, assistant professor of Spanish at TowsonUniversity. Since joining the Department of Modern Languagesin 1997, Ramsdell has consistently received high studentevaluations in a variety of classes that include not onlylower level language classes but also upper level corerequirements for Spanish majors and minors. Colleagues whohave visited her classes proclaim her proficiency with allthe conventional teaching methods, praise the interactiveaspects of her classes, remark on the integration oftechnology into her teaching, and rate highly such writtencomponents as tests, homework, and syllabi. What makes herstand out is the way she has integrated service learninginto the advanced Spanish composition class. Students in theclass must volunteer for 12 hours to either tutor adults atthe Hispanic Apostolate or teach English as a secondlanguage to students at Dumbarton Middle School. They mustkeep a log or journal about each session; conduct, tape,translate, and critique a serious interview in Spanish;participate in four lunch-time gatherings conducted entirelyin Spanish; and incorporate some of their learningexperiences into the major paper required for the course.Thanks to Ramsdell's deep sense of community service,engaging professionalism, and innovative teaching, Spanish407 has enjoyed enormous success both in the classroom andin the community.This year's winners of the award for Excellence in Research/Scholarship/Creative Activity are:Govind Rao, professor of chemical and biochemical engineering at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. Building largely on Rao's vision and leadership, UMBC's Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering is attracting growing attention nationally and internationally. As a researcher and teacher, Rao has been an indispensable member of the department and is a role model for the entire UMBC community. His 93 publications, including 30 in the past three years, and three patents justify the confidence that National Science Foundation had in him when they named him a Presidential Young Investigator in 1991. In turn, he has built the new department at UMBC with persons of similar talent. Due largely to his active mentoring, his department is one of only a few in the nation where every junior faculty member who is eligible for a National Science Foundation Career Award has received one. Rao's cutting-edge research in the area of sensors and instrumentation is resulting in low-cost measurements that previously were impossible other than in research laboratories. In another area, he is exploiting the unique properties of green fluorescent protein to serve as a real-time marker in bioprocess development. More recently, he has developed high throughput bioprocessing techniques that could revolutionize the pharmaceutical industry. What is unique about Dr. Rao's work is that it is extremely focused on developing breakthroughs that affect the greatest number of people at the lowest possible cost.Elizabeth Gantt, distinguished university professor in theDepartment of Cell Biology and Molecular Genetics at theUniversity of Maryland, College Park. Gantt is one of theworld's leading experts on the organization of thephotosynthesis apparatus of phycobilin-containing algae. Shewas first to identify a group of novel pigmented bodies,which she named phycobilosomes, that turned out to be majorcomponents of the light harvesting system of photosynthesis.Gantt's pioneering research covers broad areas of basicimportance in cell biology and biochemistry. Her recentresearch has been directed toward elucidating the structuralorganization of the photosynthetic membrane during lightacclimation. Some of her more significant accomplishmentshave included the development of means by which thetopography of the supramolecular photosynthetic membranecomplexes could be quantitatively studied in situ. Gantt andher coworkers produced evidence that supports a commonorigin for chloroplasts of various pigmented algae,previously believed to be widely divergent. Despitemaintaining a vigorous and highly visible research program,Gantt's commitments to teaching and service to UMCP havenever wavered. In addition to teaching, she directsdissertations of graduate students, hosts postdoctoralfellows, and serves on numerous graduate student committees.She is one of her unit's most reliable citizens, serving onsearch and other committees.
