Dear CMU Community,

I am thrilled to announce this year's Celebration of Education award recipients. During this unprecedented time in our history, I could not be more proud of Carnegie Mellon's most distinguished educators and their outstanding contributions to the educational experience of our students and to the teaching mission of our university. This year's ceremony, originally scheduled for April 30, 2020, has been postponed. I invite you to join me online in celebrating and congratulating the 2020 award recipients and all of our educators for their outstanding service and dedication to teaching excellence.
