The awards ceremony, attended by close to 100 students and Faculty-many of whom were award nominees-began with an invocation by Todd E. Plants `01, chair of the council's Student Affairs Committee, which organized the event.
"We want to say thank you to those who make our College years our formative years," Plants said.
Soon thereafter, council member Brian R. Smith `02, a student in Rentschler's Core class, presented him with the senior Faculty award, saying Rentschler had single-handedly improved the Core curriculum.
Rentschler, however, could not attend the dinner to accept his prize.
Flehinger was honored in the junior Faculty category, with students commenting on his accessibility and helpfulness.
Council member Rohit Chopra `04, who presented the award, noted that Flehinger has inspired many former students to join him in academia.
Flehinger imbued his victory with a political message.
