Eugene Asher Award for Distinguished Teaching
(for COLLEGE and UNIVERSITY TEACHING)


      Established in 1986, the Eugene Asher Distinguished Teaching Award recognizes outstanding teaching and advocacy for history teaching at two-year, four-year, and graduate colleges and universities. The award is named for the late Eugene Asher, for many years a leading advocate for history teaching. The Society for History Education shares with the AHA the sponsorship of the award.  
      The award is intended for inspiring teachers, whose techniques and mastery of subject matter made a real difference to students of history. Nominations of mentors or teaching colleagues are appropriate. An individual may not nominate his or her thesis adviser (current or within the past five years). At the time of nomination, a nominee must still be alive but may be retired or emeritus.  
      Letters of nomination of not more than two pages each should be submitted to the AHA no later than April 15, 2004. The prize committee will select a short list of finalists, each of whom will be asked to provide five copies of a short c.v. and a syllabus (or syllabi) or teaching statement to a total of 15 pages or less. The recipient will be invited to attend the award presentation at the 2005 annual meeting. The recipient will receive a $1000 award.  
      The letter of nomination must be postmarked by April 15, 2004. Only the letter of nomination (no faxes) should be mailed to:
