2008 Endowed Teaching Chair Recipients
I am pleased to announce the recipients of the 2008 Endowed Teaching Chairs.
These are very special awards. They honor MDC's most outstanding faculty and the very best in higher education. These faculty members serve as a source of pride for all of us at the College.
Please join me in congratulating the following eight professors, who will join the list of 266 endowed chair recipients awarded since the program's inception in 1992:
Luis Beltran - The Adorno & Yoss Employee Charitable Foundation Endowed Teaching Chair
Sandra Schultz - The Anastasios and Maria Kyriakides Endowed Teaching Chair
Alberto Meza - The Bonnie McCabe Endowed Teaching Chair in Humanities
Cynthia Schuemann - The Citibank Endowed Teaching Chair
Irene Lipof - The Daniel Gill Endowed Teaching Chair
Maria Mari - The Louis Wolfson III Endowed Teaching Chair
Alvio Dominguez - The Miami Dade College Endowed Teaching Chair in Engineering, Mathematics, and Sciences
Ken Lee - The Robert Russell Memorial Foundation Endowed Teaching Chair
I would like to give special thanks to Dr. Ian Cobham who, once again, served as the Chair of the Endowed Teaching Committee, and to all the committee members who devoted so much time to reviewing the numerous submissions and reviewing the portfolios.
Thank you and congratulations to this year's Endowed Teaching Chairs.
