The Dean's Office Award for Advising Excellence was established in 1994 to recognize a faculty member who has achieved distinction as an effective, caring mentor for students progressing through one of our programs. The award consists of a plaque and a cash award.

When students file to graduate, they are asked to complete an evaluation of the advising they have received during their academic career, and to nominate their advisor for this award, if they so wish.

This year's recipient of the Dean's Award for Advising Excellence has consistently received high praise from advisees, and is undoubtedly one of the most reliable, conscientious, and hard-working advisors on campus, always willing to help out not only in the department, but in the college and across the university.

This year's recipient of the Dean's Office Award for Advising Excellence is Stella Warren of the Department of Sociology.
