Eleven years ago, the Student Alumni Associates of the Virginia Tech Alumni Association started Faculty Appreciation Day, a day when students could recognize their favorite faculty members.
In addition, the 10 faculty members who received the most online student votes will be recognized at a reception.
"Faculty Appreciation Day is so important because faculty might get compliments and recognition from their department heads or colleagues, but it's really the students who need to express their appreciation and gratitude towards their own professors and faculty,” said Paige Thompson, university relations chair for SAA.
