The Ithaca College Dana Professorship recognizes excellence among excellence. Thanks to the Charles A. Dana Foundation’s generosity and foresight, Dana Professorships are awarded to selected Ithaca College full professors who have demonstrated a continued record of excellence as well as a promise of outstanding future contributions in teaching, professional endeavor in their area of specialty, and service to college and community. Dana Professors serve as role models and mentors for faculty and students, freely sharing their leadership, expertise, advice, and experience with the College’s community and others. Towards this end, the Dana Professors’ activities reflect positively on and enhance the College’s national and international reputation as a center for academic and artistic inquiry.
Dana Professorships are awarded for five-year terms, and faculty may reapply for the award at the end of their term. Candidates must be full professors at the time of application and at any stage of their career, though the program actively encourages newly appointed professors to apply. Candidates’ primary area of responsibility at the College must be teaching, with a minimum of six credits per semester.
Candidates must submit the following materials to apply:
· application form https://www.ithaca.edu/provost/docs/danaprofessor.docx
· current CV
· narrative and references (one internal and one external)
The above materials should be sent to mriosdominguez@ithaca.edu by November 15th, 2018. A selection committee consisting of one representative from each School will review applications and make recommendations for approval to the Provost. Awards will be announced no later than April 1, 2019. The two awarded professorships will begin their terms in AY 2019-20.
