"The many alumni who nominated him spoke both of his expertise in his subject matter and his skills as a teacher," said Dan Short, dean, Neeley School. "His deep commitment to each student touched all."
"The MBA Alumni Professor of the Year award is especially meaningful to me because it is awarded by former students after they've had time to reflect on their college experiences," said Lockwood.

I consider the MBA Alumni Award one of the highest honors bestowed on a professor, and one for which I am extremely grateful."
