The honorees represented a total of more than 1,300 years of service to the university.
The annual Faculty Service Awards honor faculty who have been at UofL 25 or more years, in five-year increments. They receive dinner at the University Club and Ramsey and Willihnganz present each with a certificate. Faculty with 25 years of service get a choice of a captain’s chair or rocker. Those with 30, 35, 40, 45 or more years receive a crystal bowl with the name and years of service engraved on it.
