William Sanford, chair of the Committee on Scholarship, Research and Graduation, is this year’s recipient of the Harry Rosenberg Award. Sanford has served as a member and chair of the Committee on Scholarship, Research and Graduate Education since 2005, and has served as a member of the Faculty Council Executive Committee since 2015. For his active participation and strong commitment to shared governance for almost 20 years, we are happy to present this award. In recognition of Sanford’s distinguished service to Colorado State University’s Faculty Council, Sanford will be presented a plaque and an honorarium.

An endowment was established in 2016 by Dr. Sue Davis Pendell (4th Faculty Council Chair) in honor of Dr. Harry Rosenberg, the first elected chair of Faculty Council and a faculty member in the Department of History. Dr. Pendell, (Department of Speech Communications) is a strong supporter of shared faculty governance. Annually, one faculty member who has made significant contributions to Faculty Council will be recognized for the award. A monetary award and a special plaque will be presented to the award winner by the Chair of Faculty Council at a Faculty Council meeting during the Spring term.
