Outstanding Faculty Award - Associate Professor, 2023
College of Liberal Arts
Casey Golomski’s remarkable contributions have earned him a nomination for the title of Outstanding Associate Professor, an honor bestowed upon him by two esteemed departments: anthropology, his academic home, and women’s and gender studies, where he plays a pivotal role as a core faculty member. This award is particularly timely, as it recognizes Golomski’s extraordinary efforts during the challenging times of the pandemic.
As a scholar, Golomski has been nothing short of exceptional. His consistent output of peer-reviewed articles demonstrates his unwavering commitment to advancing knowledge in his field. Furthermore, his upcoming book, “God’s Waiting Room,” promises to shed light on the lives of Black, white, and queer residents in a South African old age home, revealing how individuals, often positioned as adversaries, discover grace amidst mutual oppression.
What sets Golomski apart is his rare combination of academic excellence and unwavering support for his colleagues and community. While some with such prestigious achievements may withdraw from day-to-day responsibilities, Golomski consistently demonstrates his dedication. Beyond the university, Golomski contributes his time and expertise to the local community, notably the Seacoast African American Cultural Center, earning him the Spirit of NH volunteer award. On a personal level, Golomski’s character shines brightly, making him an exemplary human being.
