Five TA’s Receive Provost’s Distinction

Five graduate students are receiving recognition that has been created to honor the hard work and dedication of outstanding graduate students who teach at OU – The Provost’s Certificate of Distinction in Teaching. Austin Alford, Emily Tinney, Morgan Schneider, Ryann Wakefield, and David Stang represent the top ten percent of all graduate assistants across campus by student evaluations for courses taught during the Spring 2020 semester.

“To receive this award for this past spring semester is especially commendable, given the onset of the pandemic and the abrupt change to online instruction in the middle of the semester,” said Provost Dr. Jill Irvine. “I commend them for their talents and commitment to excellence. Their contributions are an important part of the success of our University.”
