McBride Awards
Named for Dwight A. McBride, PhD, former Northwestern University Daniel Hale Williams Professor of African American Studies, English & Performance Studies, and Dean of The Graduate School and Associate Provost for Graduate Education from 2010 to 2017, these awards recognize one outstanding TGS student and one postdoctoral scholar who go above and beyond in any or all of the areas of diversity, service, and engagement—the strategic priorities McBride worked to foster in the graduate community at Northwestern. These awards recognize those who work to create an environment that is welcoming to all.
McBride Award recipients will be recognized with a certificate of recognition and a monetary award.
