Indiana University of Pennsylvania has announced its 2026 University Senate Awards along with a new class of faculty emeriti, recognizing years of academic and professional contributions across campus.
The annual awards, presented by the University Senate since 1969, honor faculty and staff in categories including teaching, research, creative arts, and service. Recipients are recognized during spring commencement ceremonies.
This year’s honorees include Dr. Timothy Paul for creative arts, Dr. Andrea Palmiotto for research, Dr. Gian Pagnucci for service, Dr. Amanda Poole for teaching, and Michelle Fryling for staff service.
IUP also named several retired faculty and administrators as emeriti, a designation recognizing long-term service and impact on the university community. Officials say the honors reflect both academic achievement and dedication to shared governance and student success at the university.
