Nominations Sought for Howe Service Award Members of the Tri-Campus community are invited to nominate individuals or work teams who have gone beyond the call of duty in their service and commitment to student success for the Richard S. Howe Excellence in Service to Undergraduate Students Award. Winners of the cash awards could receive up to $2,000. This year's honorees will be recognized at a reception to be held May 1. Established by a gift to the university by Mrs. Walter W. McAllister Jr., the awards are named in honor of longtime engineering professor Richard Howe and recognize extraordinary faculty or staff contributions to the education and academic experience of UTSA's undergraduate students.
