- The Board of Governors Appalachian State University Excellence in Teaching Award (one award), and
- The Board of Governors Appalachian State University School/College Awards (maximum of five awards)

Eligibility
Open to faculty who:
- have demonstrated excellent or exceptional teaching ability over a sustained period of time, with tenure no longer required for eligibility
- are teaching in the academic year in which they are selected
BOG rule: No faculty member will be eligible to receive this award more than once while teaching at any UNC institution.
BOG update: As of September 2024, tenure is no longer a requirement. Any full-time faculty member is eligible, provided they are teaching in the current academic year.
Local clarification: In April 2006, the University Awards Committee clarified that the winner of the top level BOG Award for Excellence in Teaching must wait 5 years to be considered a nominee for the Appalachian State level awards.
Board of Governors Appalachian State University Awards: Excellence in Teaching Award & School/College Awards
These awards include cash awards for $1,500 and $1000 respectively, and university-wide recognition during the Fall Convocation.
Eligibility
Open to all faculty (part-time, adjunct, and full-time) who:
- have demonstrated excellence in, and commitment to, teaching over a period of time
- are teaching in the academic year in which they are selected.
Local rule: In April 2006, the University Awards Committee decided that a nominee may only win the Appalachian State level awards once in a 5 year period. If a nominee wins one of the Appalachian State level awards, the individual may still be nominated for the top level BOG Award for Excellence in Teaching in subsequent years.

More About This Award
This award is not intended to recognize good leadership, but rather students who have demonstrated leadership that could best be described as exemplary or outstanding. This leadership can be exhibited in traditional or non-traditional settings. Additionally, students nominated for this award should demonstrate that they exhibit the academic and personal behaviors expected of a successful student leader. Nominations should demonstrate that while the student may have excelled in a specific program or leadership role, that his/her leadership and actions are consistent throughout their student involvement.
This award is named for Ronny L. Brooks who served as Dean of Men and later Dean of Students at Appalachian and who was a strong supporter of the out-of-class learning that fostered student development. While this award process is coordinated by the Division of Student Development, the Ronny Brooks Leadership Award is to recognize any Appalachian student who demonstrates the ideals and principles of the award.
