The IU Northwest Teaching Committee is responsible for designating local award winners. The local award for full time faculty carries with it a monetary prize. In addition, the local award winner will automatically be nominated as the campus candidate for next year's all-university award. An associate faculty award/monetary prize may also be given.
Nominations are welcomed from all members of the IU Northwest community: faculty, staff, administrators and students. A student nominating form will also be printed in the January edition of the NORTHWEST PHOENIX. Individuals may not nominate themselves.

All University Teaching Awards
The purpose of the All University Teaching Awards is to call attention to the importance of teaching as well as to recognize those who have demonstrated excellence. The faculty awards are made at the Founder's Day ceremonies and a cash prize goes with the certificate. The amount of the cash award becomes a permanent supplement to the awardee's salary in subsequent fiscal years for as long as the awardee remains employed at Indiana University. The Lieber Associate Instructor Awards are also given at Founders Day and they receive, in addition to the certificate, a one-time cash award.
