The Celebration of Teaching paid particular honor to two groups on campus: those who won university- or school-based teaching awards during the past year, and the 2007-2008 graduates from the Center for Teaching's Teaching Certificate program. Highlights of the event included a reception with music provided by a Blair School of Music student string quartet, opening remarks by Associate Provost for Faculty, Timothy McNamara, and an overview of the Center for Teaching's outreach over this past year provided by Allison Pingree, Director of the Center for Teaching. The event concluded with the recognizing of this past year's Teaching Award honorees, reflections on teaching given by Rachel Nisselson and Timothy Troyer, 2007-2008 graduates of the Teaching Certificate program, and the awarding of the Teaching Certificates by Dennis Hall, Associate Provost of Graduate Education and Research, to this year's finishers.
