Good afternoon all, I wanted to share some exciting news in the midst of priority enrollment. We were notified today that Kristin was selected as this year’s Dr. Charles Riedesel Outstanding Academic Advising Award recipient. Kristin will be formally recognized at The Laurels event in the fall, which is the university’s annual awards reception.

Two quotes from the nomination packet that stood out to the committee reflecting Kristin’s excellence in advising read as follows: “Faculty members consistently report that it is not unusual for them to make a mental note to approach Kristin for insight on a specific student situation, only to have Kristin approach them first to check =in about the exact same situation…Faculty can list many students who have passed crucial courses, or made graduation minimum thresholds, because of active partnership with Kristin – her hard work truly transforms lives, semester by semester.”

“The [student] feedback consistently highlighted these attributes: caring, kind, attentive, patient, empathetic, and understanding. I see these in her, I hear from others in their experiences, and she articulates these values in her work with students. It’s truly who she is and how she operates.”
