Patricia Christmore Faculty Teaching Award

Named in memory of Patricia Christmore, former accounting department head, the annual award recognizes and rewards excellence in teaching. Nominees come from among superb pre-tenure faculty members on the Las Cruces campus who are in good standing with the university. Deans make nominations based on input from students and department heads. Nominees submit applications to the Christmore award’s committee, a student subcommittee made up of members of ASNMSU, which makes the final decision.
