2010–11 Faculty Recognition and Honors
Each year President Morton Schapiro and Provost Daniel
Linzer host a dinner honoring faculty members who
have brought distinction to Northwestern in the prior
year by their recognition from societies and agencies
outside the University. The O�ce of Administration
and Planning, in conjunction with the Faculty Honors
Committee, compiles a comprehensive list of faculty
awardees; recipients of the most prestigious awards are
then selected by the committee for participation in the
Faculty Recognition Dinner.
