Once again, these awards will recognize faculty for excellence in teaching, research, scholarship, creativity, mentoring, adjunct teaching, university service and entrepreneurship. They represent the university’s highest faculty honors and include monetary prizes. Before we can present any of the awards, however, we require nominations. Some require nomination by students or alumni only, while others require the dean to support or make the nomination, and still others allow self-nominations. Visit the Faculty Awards website to learn more about the criteria, processes and deadlines.

Please note that those requiring student and alumni nominations are the George Barbour Award for Good Faculty-Student Relations and the Mrs. A.B. “Dolly” Cohen Awards for Excellence in Teaching. These awards have preliminary steps and deadlines prior to November 20 — with the initial nominations from students and alumni due October 9. These initial nominations are then verified for eligibility, and nominees are notified that an electronic dossier must be prepared and submitted by the final nomination deadline of November 20.

Honorees will be announced and recognized in Spring Semester on Thursday April 17th, 2025. The All-University Faculty Awards are co-sponsored by the Office of the President, Faculty Senate and the Provost Office.

Best regards,
Neville G. Pinto

President

When grief doesn't end: Nursing PhD students bring a classroom theory to Ohio families

October 29, 2026

Most of us think of grief as something with an ending. A loss happens, it hurts, and over time the hurt fades. For many parents of children with developmental disabilities, it doesn't work that way. The sadness can quiet down for months or years and then come back. It might return on the first day of kindergarten, at a cousin's wedding, at a high school graduation, or on the day a young adult ages out of school services. Nurses and researchers have a name for this: chronic sorrow. Last October, two University of Cincinnati College of Nursing PhD students helped bring that name to a room of families, people with disabilities and the professionals who support them.
