Comment: Unfortunately there is nothing here which demonstrates notability, in particular WP:NPROF. His citations are decent, but not really outstanding. There appear to be no major awards to help the case, and Teacher of the Year is not one. Administrative positions such as Chair or Dean are not notable. Ldm1954 (talk) 13:41, 4 August 2025 (UTC)
