Dear Colleagues, I am delighted to inform about 2 Purdue recognitions received by our School faculty yesterday. First, Bryan Boudouris has received a 2014-15 Teaching for Tomorrow Award, where he's one of nine "junior" faculty matched with three highly accomplished and experienced faculty who will, over the next year, address important topics and experiences related to teaching and student learning. In recognition of his past accomplishments and future promise, he'll be awarded $1,500 in discretionary funds. Second, Rakesh Agrawal has been selected as one of the 2014 recipients of the Morrill Award, Purdue's highest career achievement recognition for a faculty member. He is cited as being among a select group of awardees the Morrill Award Committee judged to have excelled in all roles as a Professor at a land-grant research university. The committee saw clear synergies among his roles as teacher, scholar and engaged professor, and was also impressed with the impact of his work on society. The Morrill Award comes with a $30,000 prize which may be used as discretionary funds or salary supplements. Pl join me in congratulating Bryan and Rakesh for their terrific awards, which also bring recognition to our School! With best wishes, Arvind
