John P. McGovern Award for Outstanding Teaching
Every year GSBS students nominate and vote for the winner of the John P. McGovern Award for Outstanding Teaching. The award recognizes excellence in teaching based on the following criteria:
- Knowledge of the subject
- Interest in/enthusiasm for teaching
- Interest in and understanding of students
- Responsiveness to student questions and encouragement of independent thinking

The call for nominations is made in February each year by the Graduate Student Association and the award is presented to the recipient at commencement.
