The Committee on the Awards for Excellence in the Teaching of Classics at the College Level invites nominations for the 2023 SCS Award for Excellence in Teaching. In order to give special and public expression to the Society’s commitment to honor and foster excellence in the teaching of Classics we welcome nominations of faculty teaching Classics in all sorts of departments, whether public or private, in large institutions or small.

Please note carefully the deadlines and procedures described on the Awards & Fellowships page. One to three awards for excellence in the teaching of Classics will be given to college and university teachers from the United States and Canada. Thanks to a very generous gift to the Society’s Gatekeeper to Gateway Campaign for the Future of Classics from Daniel and Joanna Rose each winner will receive a certificate of award and a cash prize of $500. In addition, each winner’s institution will receive $200 to purchase educational resources selected by the winner. The awards will be presented at the Plenary Session of the Annual Meeting in January 2024.

The deadline for the receipt of complete nomination packets is October 16, 2023.

For more information about the awards and complete application guidelines, see the Awards & Fellowships page.
