É«ÇéÊÓƵ

For more than six years, The President's Leadership Fund (PLF) has provided É«ÇéÊÓƵ with the flexible resources to respond quickly to strategic opportunities, pursue innovation and reward excellence.
 
In addition to these opportunities, The PLF has created a new type of investment: The President's Leadership Fund Awards for Faculty and Staff Excellence.  

Recognizing campus leaders

According to É«ÇéÊÓƵ President Stephen L. Weber, establishing this award is a natural evolution of The PLF's work.

"Since its inception, the PLF has displayed its commitment to rewarding deserving faculty and staff members, and that is precisely what this investment will accomplish," Weber said.

"Investing in É«ÇéÊÓƵ's 'Minds that move the World' will help us retain the stellar teacher-scholars and dedicated staff members who enrich our students' experiences, contribute ground-breaking, application-oriented research and are deeply and meaningfully engaged in the community."

Award details

The PLF is now accepting nominations for up to five awards of $5,000 each, which the recipients must re-invest in their important work at San Diego State. 

Specifics include:

• Potential awardees must be nominated by a supervisor or colleague (no self nominations) — any faculty or staff member may nominate.
• Nominees should exemplify the PLF principles of innovation, excellence and entrepreneurship.
• Nominations must be submitted by completing a nomination form.
• Nominations are due no later than Feb. 23.
• Recipients will be chosen by a select group of civic and business leaders who have close ties to the university.
• Awards will be announced in late April 2009.
