Welcome!
Welcome to the Academy of Distinguished Teachers website. Established in 1999, the Academy of Distinguished Teachers is a forum through which its members provide important leadership to the University community, serving as mentors, advisers, and spokespersons for the University’s teaching mission. Academy members come from all four of the University’s campuses – Crookston, Duluth, Morris, and the Twin Cities.
This website will introduce you to many of the activities that the Academy is currently pursuing. You will find featured Academy members, as well as teaching-related articles and links. Information about the Academy’s mission, history, and membership can also be found on the site.
We welcome your feedback and comments. Feel free to contact the Academy (see contact information to the left)
