American Historical Association honors Professor Steven Volk with 2002 Roelker Mentorship Award

"Letters written in support of the nomination of Dr.Volk demonstrate not only the immediate impact he had on students in the classroom, but also the enduring relationships he has forged with many. He has taught, guided, and inspired his students in innumerable ways. His conviction in the power and relevance of history together with his teaching-learning strategies imbue his students with a love of history. Dr. Volk's concern for historical fact and reasonable argument actively engages his students to reassess assumptions and formulate new conclusions. As one of his students said in his letter of nomination, he is 'the role model of what a thinking person can be.' Dr. Volk is also concerned with the whole humanity of his students. Generous with his time and involvement, he actively nurtures his professional relationship beyond the classroom. In the process, students remember his enduring impact on their lives." --from the award citation
