Deborah and Franklin Haimo Awards for Distinguished College or University Teaching of Mathematics

The Deborah and Franklin Tepper Haimo Awards for Distinguished College or University Teaching of Mathematics are awards given by the Mathematical Association of America to recognize college or university teachers[1] "who have been widely recognized as extraordinarily successful and whose teaching effectiveness has been shown to have had influence beyond their own institutions."[2] The Haimo awards are the highest teaching honor bestowed by the MAA. The awards were established in 1993 by Deborah Tepper Haimo and named after Haimo and her husband Franklin Haimo.[3] After the first year of the award (when seven awards were given) up to three awards are given every year.

Winners

The winners of the award have been:[2]

gollark: Like I said, if you could reliably get future information/transmit information backward in time, that would be ridiculously powerful.
gollark: Wait, presupposes that *god* can do that (which is required if said god is omnipotent), or that *people* can get future information?
gollark: Oh, and if you can get answers on yes/no questions about the future that also allows you to transmit information backward through time, obviously.
gollark: If you could tell the future that way, there would already be autodivinators (or, if you can't do that, many minimum-wage people flipping coins) used for picking stocks.
gollark: (if it's *not*, then the chance of getting two heads or two tails is... a half, anyway)
