ASU’s New College can be called the home of award-winning teachers. Over the past year five faculty members from the college have received awards, both local and national, for their dedication to excellence in teaching and mentoring ASU students.
These outstanding educators include Breanne Fahs, Douglas Kelley, Bertha Alvarez Manninen (pictured receiving her award), Bonnie Wentzel and Stephen Wirkus.
“These honors speak to the outstanding student experience New College offers, with our combination of a small college atmosphere and the resources of a major research university,” said Marlene Tromp, the college’s dean. “Some professors are content to ‘hide out’ in their labs or offices. New College specifically recruits faculty members who are committed not only to exploring the boundaries of scholarship in their fields, but also to reaching out to students as teachers and mentors.”
