The Faculty and Staff Awards of Excellence is a Foundation-sponsored program insuring that everyone has an equal opportunity to be recognized, through this prestigious award, for their outstanding contributions to Bismarck State College.

To publicly recognize the Award for Excellence recipients, they are announced at BSC's Celebration Day Ceremony in the spring.  Two faculty award recipients will each receive $1000 and two staff award recipients will each receive $1000. One adjunct faculty and a part-time staff member are also recognized and each receives a $250 award.
