Measurable Support for Contingent Faculty = Cash Awards
The Pullias Center and the American Association of Colleges & Universities (AAC&U) have joined forces to present the annual Delphi Award. This presitigous honor, now in its sixth year, presents a $15,000 cash award to two universities annually that support non-tenure-track, contingent and/or adjunct faculty in pursuing strategic priorities such as student learning and community engagement.
The Delphi Award is generously sponsored by the TIAA Institute.

Rewarding Scaleable, Institutionalized Support for Contingent Faculty
The purpose of the Delphi Award is to support policies, practices and programs that ameliorate the issues facing contingent, non-tenure-track and adjunct faculty.
This is particularly important because faculty bring assets and benefits to campuses, departments and academic units but are often prevented from using their talents effectively to support students and contribute to institutional priorities aligned with improving campus(es) and contributing to the learning mission of higher education.
