Honoring Our Professors of Excellence (HOPE)

University Housing & Dining Services is celebrating the sixth annual Honoring Our Professors of Excellence (HOPE) Awards on April 9, 2013.  The HOPE Awards allows students within the residence halls to recognize their faculty members, who help share their learning in and outside the classroom.  We are wanting all students to nominate a favorite, inspirational or dedicated faculty member that they have experienced in their career at WIU.
