All awards are welcome, but recognition by one\u2019s peers, and for professors, recognition by one\u2019s students, is particularly meaningful. Each year, the dedication of members of the faculty of the College of Business Administration at Florida International University (FIU) gets special attention at the Faculty Awards Luncheon. Held this year on October 20th<\/sup>, the luncheon enabled the 55 attendees to learn whom undergraduate and graduate students—as well as those from student organizations—chose as winners of the highly competitive and coveted awards.<\/p>\n
