The Linker Award
The J. Burton Linker Fund, established by
J. Burton Linker, Jr. '44 of Chapel Hill and Edward M. Linker of Martinsville, Va., in honor of UNC-CH Mathematics
Professor J. Burton Linker, provides for the annual Linker Award. The Linker Award is given by the Department to the graduate
student who has shown the greatest effectiveness as a teacher of undergraduate mathematics courses. Recipients of the Linker
