"I am thrilled and honored to receive this award. Teaching means so much to me, and I am extremely grateful to the Anthropology Department for giving me the opportunity to be an instructor. I am also grateful to the department for nominating me for this award. Most importantly, I especially want to thank Dr. Thomas Chivens for his invaluable mentoring over the years, as I have developed my teaching style." - Benjamin Hollenbach
