Assistant professor Renato Liboro (Psychology) is this year's recipient of the Top Tier Award. Liboro actively contributes to several core area of UNLV’s Top Tier 2.0 initiatives, including Research, Scholarship, and Creative Activity; Community Partnerships; Student Achievement; Social Justice, Equity, and Inclusion; UNLV Academic Health; and Infrastructure and Shared Governance. Shortly after joining UNLV in 2019, he established the Community Health Advocacy for Minority Populations, Immigrants, and Other Newcomers (CHAMPION Mental Health) initiative. According to one of his nominators, “As a dynamic community-engaged scholar, Dr. Liboro has worked tirelessly towards promoting excellence and advancing UNLV’s mission as a top tier university since he joined our institution.”
The Top Tier Award honors employees for outstanding contributions to UNLV and its mission to be a top tier university. While everyone associated with UNLV works toward fulfilling our mission, the efforts of some individuals present an outstanding example of commitment. The Top Tier Award recognizes such dedicated members of our campus community. This award is administered by the Office of Faculty Affairs.
