    Call for Nominations
Faculty Distinguished Teaching Awards
Deadline for Nominations: MONDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 2003
Faculty, staff, students, and alumni are invited to submit nominations for any faculty
members, .5FTE or greater, tenure or non-tenure related, who have taught at the
University of Oregon for a minimum of two (2) years. The Ersted Award and Thomas F.
Herman Award are presented annually at Spring Commencement to University of
Oregon faculty members for distinguished teaching. Each award will be accompanied by
a recurring monetary reward. (Please note: Graduate Teaching Fellows have their own competition
and are ineligible for these teaching awards.)
Eligibility for Awards
Ersted Award for
Distinguished Teaching
The late Mr. A. J. Ersted established the
Ersted Award for Distinguished Teaching
so the University of Oregon could
annually honor faculty members “who
have taught comparatively short periods
and have demonstrated exceptional
abilities to induce students to reason and
not merely memorize.” The Ersted
Award is presented only to faculty who
are early in their teaching careers. This
teaching may occur at the undergraduate
or graduate level.
Thomas F. Herman Faculty
Achievement Award for
Distinguished Teaching
This award honors senior faculty
members who have achieved outstanding
records as teachers. The Thomas F.
Herman Award is presented only to
faculty members who have academic rank
at the University of Oregon for at least
seven years, and who have demonstrated
long-standing excellence in teaching and
have contributed significantly to student
learning at the undergraduate or graduate
level.

The computer lab in the EMU has less printing since it has started charging a per-page
fee. Paper use is down 28 percent from last year.
Labs
continued from page 1
5-cent-per-page printing fee initiat
ed fall term.
The fee, which is charged at
McKenzie, EMU, Klamath and Mill
race computer labs, began in an at
tempt to reduce mountains of
wasted paper and associated print
ing costs.
“We’ve seen a decrease in the
number of people in the lab, and
we’re certainly saving paper,” Mc
Coy said. “People have said, ‘It’s
about time.’”
Before the fee was initiated,
EMU computer lab patrons used
2,009 sheets of paper every day.
But now, it seems, students under
stand the value of saving a nickel.
Last term, EMU lab patrons used
940 sheets daily, a savings of 82
pounds per week.
Millrace lab attendant Mauri Cas
tle said paper waste from printing
has decreased in all computer labs
on campus. Although initially upset
when the fee was initiated last fall,
Castle said she thinks the surcharge
has been successful.
“They wanted to reduce paper
waste, and that is exactly what hap
pened,” Castle said.
By making students pay for what
they use, it has made many reevalu
ate what they need, McCoy added.
“If anything, it has made people
think. They’re asking themselves,
‘Do I really need this, or is this just
a convenience?”’ McCoy said.
Computing Center lab coordina
tor Mary Bradley said students
printing in labs fall term paid
#11,228 for printing, which equaled
the University’s expenses for paper,
toner and software. Bradley said the
amount of money spent on fall term
printing was half as much as what it
was during the same time last year.
“It shows we’re charging the right
amount because our revenue is
matching our expenses,” Bradley said.
According to the Native Forest
Network, more than 90 million tons
of paper are consumed in the Unit
ed States annually. Paper reduction
in the EMU computer lab alone will
save more than two tons a year.
But despite the decrease in wast
ed paper generated by computer
labs, Environmental Resources and
Recycling Program Manager Karyn
Kaplan said demands on campus re
cycling have only grown. Kaplan
said the increase might be because
of a 15 percent increase in students
in the past several years.
“Through waste reduction and re
cycling,” Kaplan said, “we’re keep
ing the dam from breaking.”
