Deborah and Franklin Haimo Awards for Distinguished College or University Teaching of Mathematics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Deborah and Franklin Tepper Haimo Awards for Distinguished College or University Teaching of Mathematics are awards given by the Mathematical Association of America to recognize college or university teachers[1] "who have been widely recognized as extraordinarily successful and whose teaching effectiveness has been shown to have had influence beyond their own institutions."[2] The Haimo awards are the highest teaching honor bestowed by the MAA.[3] The awards were established in 1993 by Deborah Tepper Haimo and named after Haimo and her husband Franklin Haimo.[4] After the first year of the award (when seven awards were given) up to three awards are given every year.
