Last year the Dean of Arts introduced a series of new Faculty-based awards to better recognize the accomplishments of both faculty and staff members: Arts Teaching Awards, Arts Research Awards, and Arts Service Awards.

Launching this new recognition initiative, the first recipients of the Teaching Awards were recently selected by the dean-appointed Arts Awards and Honours Committee, with a formal award event planned for September. Christina Vester has been selected as one of the (inaugural) recipients of the Arts Teaching Award 2013.

"Effective May 1, 2005, in accordance with the 2003 Faculty Salary Settlement, the University of Waterloo established an Outstanding Performance Fund to reward faculty members for outstanding contribution in teaching and scholarship," writes Vice-President, Academic & Provost Geoff McBoyle. "I am very pleased to announce the award recipients for 2013, and would like to take this opportunity to congratulate them for their outstanding contributions to the University of Waterloo." 

Arranged by faculty, among the 2013 winners for Arts was Sheila Ager.
