Jahangeer Warsi, has been selected as a 2011-2012 recipient of the James E.
McLeod Faculty Recognition Award by the students of Washington University
in St. Louis, Missouri.
Previously called the Faculty Awards, this year the ArtSci Council decided
to rename the event in honour of one of their biggest supporters James E.
McLeod.
Viewed as a very prestigious honour in academics, the award is given to
those who have positively and profoundly influenced the educational
experiences to the students at Washington University.
Warsi, a gold medallist linguist from Aligarh Muslim University and a West
Bengal Academy award holder, will receive the honour April 16 at a
Recognition Ceremony hosted by the School Council, the undergraduate
organization and executive governing body for the College of Arts &
Sciences.
He is also the recipient of unsung Hero award from the University of
California at Berkeley in 2005, and a recipient of UP Hindi-Urdu Literary
Award 2011.
