Purdue inducted 38 instructors into its Book of Great Teachers, which honors outstanding teaching faculty who have demonstrated sustained excellence in the classroom. Included in this year's inductees was Agronomy's Dr. Laura Bowling, who earlier this year received the Charles B. Murphy Outstanding Undergraduate Teaching Award.
The induction ceremony, conducted as part of the annual Celebration of Teaching Excellence, is held every five years and took place Tuesday (Sept. 26) in Purdue Memorial Union's North Ballroom.
