Approximately two-thirds of the graduate students at WSU are involved in teaching classes to undergraduate and professional students. Graduate, undergraduate, and professional students and faculty are encouraged to nominate outstanding teaching assistants. If you know of a TA who meets these qualifications, please consider nominating them for the 1999-2000 TA Excellence Awards. Nomination forms also will be printed in the Daily Evergreen in December and February. The nomination deadline is February 23, 2001.
