Dave Randall selected Professor of the Year

Dave Randall has been chosen as the 2016-17 Professor of the Year by ATS graduate student representatives, based on evaluations submitted by students over the course of the school year. The grad reps compile student responses and determine which professor received the most support and should be honored for teaching excellence.

At Thursday’s New Student Welcome Picnic, Graduate Representative Jakob Lindaas presented Dave with a plaque and read an excerpt from one of his evaluations:

“Dave excels at communicating complex ideas in a relatable fashion, appealing to our intuition and warning us when our intuition might lead us astray.”

Dave said he was honored to receive this distinction from his students.

“I’m very grateful. An award from the students means more to me than an award from any other source.”
