Tenure and Promotion Recipients

In 2023, the University of West Florida Board of Trustees approved tenure for 12 University faculty members. Additionally, President Martha Saunders awarded promotion to 27 faculty members.


Rite of Passage Lecture Series

The Rite of Passage lecture series event celebrates UWF faculty recently promoted to full professor. This series commemorates the work of top academics in achieving the highest level in higher education teaching -- the coveted full professorship. The lecture series gives the professor the opportunity to share with colleagues, students, friends and community members life lessons outside the classroom.

Once details have been finalized, dates and times for the 2023-2024 events can be found on the Rite of Passage website.
