Each year, UW CSE invites students to nominate “inspirational teachers” from secondary school or community college – teachers who shaped their perceptions of themselves as students. We host those teachers, their spouses/guests, and the students who nominated them at a dinner in the Allen Center. We have three goals: to honor the teachers for their contributions; to re-acquaint them with some of their favorite students; and to encourage them to send us more great students!
Photos from this year’s “Inspirational Teacher” dinner may be found here.
