Established in 2010, the Shirley Aceto Award is awarded annually at William & Mary "to a member of the instructional or professional faculty "who demonstrates most fully a commitment to excellence in service for the common good." Established in 2010, the award is named for Shirley Aceto, whose dedicated service to the College as assistant to the provost spanned nearly four decades."1
