A great advisor is important to your academic and, later, your professional success. If yours sets an example (or you know of an advisor who does), they should be spotlighted for going above and beyond the call of duty. That’s why TGS has the Clarence L.  Ver Steeg Graduate Faculty and Staff Awards: to recognize a faculty or staff member’s dedication to graduate students.  Winners receive $3,000, a certificate of recognition, and will also be honored at the PhD and MFA Hooding Ceremony in June.
