Professor Langlois Receives Outstanding Faculty Mentor Award
April 20, 2018
Congratulations to Professor Jamie Langlois from the School of Social
Work on receiving the Outstanding Faculty Mentor Award!
Nominated by Cassandra Kiger, Social Work
Cassandra writes: "Dr. Langlois of the School of Social Work has gone above and beyond in her role as a professor to not only support her students in their work in class, but to walk along students in engaging in the community and move from education to profession. Personally, Dr., Langlois has directly given me support and guidance in resume and CV development, preparing for job interviews, navigating "isms" in the workplace, identifying which community organizations and resources to invest in, finding support for projects and dreams, and has been my biggest and most energetic cheerleader in projects and competitions.
At times in the past year I have been tempted to give simple, easy work that I know will take minimal effort and achieve a decent grade, and Dr. Langlois has pushed me to use every academic opportunity to bring change to the community and my career instead. I am both a better student and professional for having spent the past year under Dr. Langlois."
