John C. Livingston Annual Faculty Lecture

The John C. Livingston Distinguished Faculty Lecture has long been considered one of the most prestigious awards given to a member of the Sacramento State faculty. This award recognizes a sustained and unique contribution to the campus community in providing intellectual leadership and has important significance to the life of this university. This award dates back to 1959 when John C. Livingston, a professor in the Government department from 1954 to 1982, gave the first Distinguished Faculty Convocation Address. In 1985 the Faculty Convocation was renamed in Professor Livingston’s honor. A faculty member is selected each fall to deliver the lecture during the Spring semester at a convocation held in the recipient’s honor. The lecture traditionally is on a topic chosen by the Livingston Lecturer that is of general interest to the university community. The Livingston Annual Faculty Lecture Committee is responsible for the administration of the John C. Livingston Annual Faculty Lecture Award. The call for nominations is distributed each fall by the Faculty Senate Office.
