Stewart wins PIE honors - and a pie

Assistant lecturer Justin Stewart received a 2011 Promoting Intellectual Engagement in the First Year (PIE) award for his efforts teaching freshmen classes. The PIE Award recognizes outstanding faculty who inspire students intellectually in first-year courses.
This year, nominees were chosen by both freshmen and sophomore students in an on-line survey. A committee selected winners based on number of nominations and students' comments regarding the faculty member's success in engaging students meaningfully in course material, promoting successful transition to college expectations, and fostering investment in learning.
At a reception in April, Justin will receive a pie!
