Eighteen IU faculty receive FACET Awards


Joseph Clements, associate professor at the IUB Department of Spanish and Portuguese, is one of 18 faculty members from IU campuses across the state to receive the 2004 FACET award. “I try to get people to think about their language,” he said. “How does it work? Why does it work the way it does? What is universal about it? What does it say about us as a culture, as a biological species?” Award winners will be swapping pedagogical strategies at the 16th annual FACET retreat, titled “Celebrating the Good Life of Teaching and Learning,” Friday, May 21, through Sunday, May 23, at Lake Monroe.
Eighteen IU faculty members have been selected to receive the 2004 Faculty Colloquium on Excellence in Teaching (FACET) Awards. They join a distinguished group of IU faculty who have been chosen annually since FACET’s inception in 1989, bringing current membership to 423. The new members are:
