16 win 2019 All-University Faculty Awards
Among 6,000 faculty members, UC honored 16 to receive the university's top faculty awards in teaching, research, scholarship, creativity, entrepreneurship, faculty-student relations and career achievement at its 2019 All-University Faculty Awards Celebration.
The annual event took on a special tone this year as UC celebrates its Bicentennial. A poem by Rieveschl Award winner Maria Paz Moreno focused on the Ohio River while College-Conservatory of Music undergraduate Joseph Parrish from Baltimore performed a song published as sheet music in 1819, accompanied by Michael Delfin, doctoral student in piano from Fresno, California.
