Six West Virginia University faculty members and one graduate student were recently named recipients of Travis Stimeling Award for Mentoring Undergraduates in Research.
Formerly the Faculty Awards for Distinction in Mentoring Undergraduates in Research, the award was renamed this year in memory of Travis Stimeling, former professor of musicology in the College of Creative Arts, who passed away in November 2023. Stimeling was a recipient of the award in 2022 and was a passionate advocate of undergraduate research and providing students with research opportunities.
