The award is open to full-time instructors who administer the Course Instructor Opinion Survey (CIOS) to their students. Courses are categorized into large classes or small classes, then awards are given based on CIOS scores and the number of students who responded. CIOS scores are based on student responses in three categories: the instructor’s respect and concern for students; their level of enthusiasm about teaching the course; and their ability to stimulate my interest in the subject matter. The awards are funded by an endowment by the Class of 1934.
