Faculty and staff recipients of the thirteenth annual Outstanding Advisor Awards were recognized at a reception in the University Dining Hall on Thursday, May 3, 2018. They were selected from a record number of 29 highly qualified candidates nominated by students and colleagues, and announced by Provost Dr. Lynette Zelezny and Vice President for Student Affairs and Enrollment Management Dr. Frank Lamas.

Each of the following award recipients received an engraved trophy, a certificate, and a $1,000 stipend for professional development:

• Lilia De La Cerda – Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation
• Nora Diaz – Career Development Center
• Dr. Krish Krishnan – Chemistry Department
• Dr. Marilyn Wilson – Psychology Department

These four went above and beyond typical advising duties to inspire many students to reach for higher goals, believe in themselves, and develop a love for their respective areas of study or service. They are an inspiration to students and colleagues alike. Congratulations!

And a big thank you to the entire University Advising Center team.
