Special Project Award
Maria Chadley, Otis Chadley, Tom Conners, Paula Hayes, Johnnie Love, Doug McElrath, Cynthia Sorrell, Rebecca Wilson, Craig Mason, Brett Schwering
In recognition of your exemplary collaborative effort to observe the 50th Anniversary of the landmark Supreme Court Case, Board vs. Board of Education of 1954. Your collaboration featured a lecture by Dr. Carla Hayden, past president of ALA and Executive Director of the Enoch Pratt Free Library, followed by an exhibit entitled "Groundbreakers: Succeeding Against the Odds." This exhibit highlighted individuals who played critical roles in the University's history as it relates to diversity, access to public education, and civil rights. The traveling exhibit was so successful to have been the focal point in the Provost's lecture series a number of times and was loaned to other institutions in the metropolitan Washington, D.C. area.
