Edwin M. Moseley Faculty Lectureship Nomination Form

Established in 1957, this annual award recognizes a Skidmore faculty member for her/his outstanding scholarly achievement, artistic accomplishment, academic research, and/or creative work. The individual selected gives the Moseley Lecture, one of the college’s major public events of the year. While deemed a "lecture," the presentation has no prescribed format: it might center, for example, around a reading, performance or exhibition. The event is usually held during the month of February. The award acknowledges an exemplary level of scholarship and achievement that sets a standard for academic excellence at Skidmore. It is the highest honor that the Skidmore faculty can bestow on one of its own.
