College of Business honors professors of the year | ||||
July 8, 2003
The awards -- one each in the categories of teaching, research and service accompanied by a $1,000 cash award, and an overall award for $2,000 that encompasses all three categories -- recognize faculty who embody the spirit and direction of the College, Platt says. The program is the first in what is intended to be an annual event. Sally Baack, assistant professor of management, received the overall award for excellence in teaching, research and service. Platt praised her as a wonderful role model for both students and faculty, who "seems to bring out the best in those around her." Baack teaches the undergraduate and MBA capstone course in strategic management and MBA electives in corporate management and international business negotiations. She conducts research on corporate governance, strategic alliances and international competition with an emphasis on strategic management for U.S. wineries facing international competition. She also runs the College's popular research roundtable and coordinates the multi-section course, Seminar in Business Policy and Strategic Management.
Bill Perttula, professor and chair of marketing who received the service award, didn’t think twice about volunteering to fill in last fall when Ronald Beall, the College’s associate dean was out for several weeks with an injury. For eight weeks, Perttula barely took off a weekend as the College's acting associate dean while continuing his duties as professor and department chair.
