For the third year in a row, the University of �޻���ֱ�� at Lafayette is recognizing faculty members as Outstanding Advisors. Forty-five advisors with three or more years of advising experience received $1,000 awards while 10 new faculty advisors with less than three years advising experience received $500 awards.

“ It is nice once again to honor our faculty advisors with these awards,” said UL Lafayette President Ray Authement. “For the last three years, we’ve been able to recognize them with these awards for their exemplary work with our students. These faculty members are true leaders.”

In order to be eligible, advisors must have had a minimum of 20 advisees or removed at least 20 advising holds and must have attended at least two advising symposiums, trainings or conferences last year.

The Advising Awards Selection Committee made the selections based on several criteria including: assessment by advisees, recommendations from department heads and deans, statement of advisor's philosophy and profiles of candidates' advisees.
