Daisies grow outside the UNCG Alumni House.

The James E. Holshouser Award for Public Service, formerly known as the Public Service Award, was created in 2007 to encourage, identify, recognize, and reward public service by faculty of the University of North Carolina system. Each year, UNCG puts forth a campus nominee to the Board of Governors for consideration. The selection criteria include sustained, distinguished, and superb achievement in university public service and outreach and contributions to improving the quality of life for citizens of North Carolina. The creativity and impact of such achievements should be beyond the normal accomplishments of productive faculty. 

The J.E. Holshouser award committee is currently seeking nominations for this distinguished award. In honor of their achievement, the UNCG nominee will be recognized at the Spring 2024 Faculty Awards ceremony.

The deadline to submit a nomination is Friday, September 1. To learn more about the award, please visit theย J.E. Holshouser Award Page.
