CLEVELAND -- Dr. James Springstead, associate professor in chemical and paper engineering at Western Michigan University, has been named an Outstanding Faculty Award for Student Success winner by the Mid-American Conference Academic Consortium.
Springstead represents WMU as one of 12 institutional award winners, representing each of the full member institutions of the MAC. This student-focused award is distinguishable from academic or research-based awards as it celebrates the commitment of the MAC to a holistic student experience and the creation of an environment that supports success in school and in life.
Eligibility for this award is broad in nature in an effort to identify a wide range of outstanding means by which faculty are significantly impacting students, and to create an opportunity to recognize the various ways that student success is supported within the MAC.
