UA College of Social Work gives Peace Award

From the UA Dialog Online:

The Peace Award is granted annually to a UA faculty member who in his/her teaching, research, practice and professional life has demonstrated exceptional levels of involvement in mediating human disputes, helping overcome prejudice, promoting justice and establishing peace.

The recipient will receive a $1,000 monetary award and will be recognized at a ceremony in spring 2006. Although the award is administered by the School of Social Work, any UA faculty member may receive the award. The specific criteria and nomination form may be downloaded at www.socialwork.ua.edu.

This year's Peace Award winner was UA Poly Sci Professor John Oneal.
