The Bingham Program for Excellence in Teaching
The Bingham Program was established in 1987 as a result of the vision and generosity of the late Mary and Barry Bingham Sr. and the late William T. Young. This program fosters and rewards excellence in teaching for carefully selected faculty members. In addition, since 1990, the program has offered support for continuing professional growth and improvement through the David and Betty Jones Faculty Development Fund, made possible by the gifts of Mr. and Mrs. David Jones and William T. Young.
The Bingham Program and its restricted endowment are administered by a separate Bingham Board of Trust. The original, basic endowment of $5 million has subsequently grown to nearly $100 million through appreciation and additional gifts. The responsibilities of the Board of Trust include the development of policies regarding the various awards and the establishment of the maximum number of awards to be granted in a given year and the amounts of the awards.
