Suk H. Kim honored with Distinguished Faculty Award

The Current, Fall 2003

Each year, the faculty selects one to three of their peers to receive University Faculty Excellence Awards. These individuals are selected because they possess the qualities and skills that best exemplify the body of faculty at University of Detroit Mercy. Qualities include excellence in teaching and scholarly endeavors; service to others; and active involvement in the University, their profession, and their community. They also engage in personal and professional activities that express the University mission.

Suk H. Kim, professor and discipline coordinator of Finance and International Business in the College of Business Administration, received the Distinguished Faculty Award at an October 17 reception. Gail M. Presbey, associate professor of Philosophy in the College of Liberal Arts and Education, received the Faculty Achievement Award.

Says Kim, "I feel so honored to win this prestigious award. I think this really does mean that the U.S. is the place where anyone has the chance to accomplish anything. Winning this award is my proudest accomplishment."
