Three faculty members chosen for this year's Sherrerd teaching awards will be honored during a ceremony on October 26. They are Maren Buck, assistant professor of chemistry; Gaby Immerman, senior laboratory instructor in biological sciences; and Michelle Joffroy, associate professor of Spanish and Portuguese.
The annual Kathleen Compton Sherrerd ’54 and John F.

Nominations submitted by students, faculty and alums cited the contributions that this year’s award recipients have made through their teaching, research and mentorship. Kindness, accessibility and a love for learning are among the qualities nominators used to describe the 2021 honorees.
This year’s Sherrerd Awards will be held on October 26, 2021, at 4:30 p.m. in Sweeney Concert Hall, Sage Hall, and will be livestreamed. Due to COVID-19 regulations, the college will not host a reception or dinner this year.
