Michael Salomone, professor in The Sam Nunn School of International Affairs (INTA), and John Smith, assistant professor in the School of History, Technology and Society (HTS), have been honored as Teacher of the Year, an award sponsored by the Ivan Allen College Undergraduate Student Advisory Board (SAB) with the support of the College office and schools.

New this year, the awards will be given annually in recognition of tenure-track and non-tenure-track faculty members based on factors including teaching evaluations for courses taught during the previous year. Honorees receive a Distinguished Teaching Medal and $1,000 contributed by the College and its six schools. 

The awards were presented by two SAB students at the collegewide spring faculty meeting on April 22 in the G. Wayne Clough Undergraduate Learning Commons.

We are proud to have both of these outstanding teachers as part of the Ivan Allen College family.

Dr. Michael D. Salomone joined INTA as a professor in 1989. He has developed and currently teaches courses on great power relations, technology and military organization, simulation and war-gaming, and scenario writing and path gaming. His research focuses on the capabilities and vulnerabilities of military organizations.

John Matthew (Johnny) Smith came to HTS in fall 2012 as a postdoctoral fellow and was recently appointed Assistant Professor in Sports History. He teaches modern U.S. history and a variety of foundational courses in the Sports, Society, and Technology undergraduate program which he also coordinates.
