UMass Amherst’s connection with and commitment to neighboring urban communities—and particularly those in the cities of Holyoke and Springfield—are being spotlighted by the university’s 2009 Distinguished Academic Outreach Awards. Three members of the university faculty were honored for their outstanding contributions to outreach and to the scholarship of community engagement as UMass Amherst Chancellor Robert Holub and Provost Charlena Seymour joined Vice Provost for Outreach Sharon Fross in presenting this year’s awards during ceremonies on April 15. In addition, Springfield Technical Community College President Ira Rubenzahl received the Outreach Award for Community Partnership for strengthening the relationship between UMass Amherst and Springfield in areas ranging from economic and environmental sustainability to opening expanded opportunities for STCC graduates at UMass Amherst. |
