Congratulations Kristen Holmquist for receiving a 2024 Distinguished Teaching Award!
Overview of the Award
The DTA recognizes individual faculty for sustained excellence in teaching. Beyond an individual exemplary class, such sustained excellence in teaching incites intellectual curiosity in students, inspires colleagues, and makes students aware of significant relationships between the academy and the world at large. Recipients receive a cash award from campus and recognition by the Academic Senate. They are honored at a public ceremony, and are permanently indicated as Distinguished Teachers in the UC Berkeley catalog. Distinguished Teachers are often called upon by campus to provide a voice in teaching-related issues.
2024 Awardees:
- Kristen Holmquist, Teaching Professor of Law

- David Marno, Associate Professor of English
- Peter Marsden, Continuing Lecturer of Chemistry
