Faculty selected for prestigious
Plumeri Awards APRIL 2010 :: Twenty of the College’s distinguished profes- sors make up the second class of recipients of the Plumeri Awards for Faculty Excellence. The annual awards recognize faculty for exemplary achievements in teaching, research and service and carry with them a $10,000 prize for each recipient, to be applied toward research, summer salaries, or other stipends associated with scholarly endeavor. The awards’ ultimate intention is to enhance faculty interaction with students. The Plumeri Awards were established by Joseph J.
Plumeri II ’66, who made a significant commitment in spring 2008 to create the awards out of a desire to “honor and sup- port” faculty efforts at his alma mater. In alphabetical order, the 2010 Plumeri Award recipients
include: Jayne W. Barnard (law), Paula C. Blank (English), Randy M. Chambers (biology), Paul S. Davies (philosophy), Gary C. DeFotis (chemistry), Susan V. Donaldson (English), James G. Dwyer (law), Maryse Fauvel (modern languages and literatures), Carl T. Friedrichs (marine science), Paul D. Heideman (biology), Lu Ann Homza (history), Steven A. Kuehl (marine science), Robert J. Latour (marine science), Lawrence M. Leemis (mathematics), Charles R. McAdams III (educa- tion), Alan J. Meese ’86 (law), Jennifer M. Mellor (economics), Jennifer Bickham Mendez (sociology), Jeffrey K. Nelson (physics), and John P. Swaddle (biology).

Thomasine Lewis APRIL 2010 :: Thomasine Lewis has been a familiar face on campus for close to half a cen- tury. The 2010 recipi- ent of the Duke Award is known by students as a loving and considerate staff member at the Marketplace. Established in
1997, the Charles and Virginia Duke Award is given annually to an outstanding member of the College staff. The winner receives $5,000 and acknowledgement at commencement. The award is given to an individual who exhibits exemplary service and dedication to William & Mary. Lewis, who retired this year, is the definition of service
