Walter Barnard Hill Awards

Since 1992, the Walter Barnard Hill Awards have recognized distinguished achievement in public service and outreach by University of Georgia faculty members and service professionals. Each recipient is judged to have made contributions to the improvement of the quality of life in Georgia or elsewhere of an order that greatly exceeds the normal accomplishments of a productive faculty member. A maximum of five Hill Awards may be presented each year. Each awardee receives a permanent salary increase of $2,000 beyond the raise provided through the normal allocation process, a medallion and framed certificate. Only Hill Award winners are eligible for appointment as a Walter Barnard Hill Distinguished Public Service and Outreach Fellow. Click here to read more
