History
The Bank
of America Award for Teaching Excellence was first presented in 1968
to recognize outstanding faculty members at The University of North
Carolina at Charlotte. It was established in response to a
suggestion by the staff of the student literary magazine.
Vice
Chancellors Bonnie E. Cone and W. Hugh McEniry endorsed the
students' proposal for the annual award and presented it to
Chancellor Dean W. Colvard. Chancellor Colvard found financial
support for the award through the generosity of Addison H. Reese and
NCNB, a predecessor to NationsBank and Bank of America. |
