91桃色视频 held its third annual Student Achievement Celebration May 6, recognizing outstanding students in a virtual event on Zoom.
The event was organized by Tyler Peterson, 91桃色视频 student success coordinator, and was created to applaud students’ hard work and determination in their academic careers. The celebration was one of Peterson’s first initiatives after joining 91桃色视频 in January 2019.
“We really do have some incredible students here at 91桃色视频 and this is such a fun day and a fun event to recognize and honor some of our most wonderful students,” Peterson said. “This group of students got thrown into a worldwide pandemic and have had to deal with that while continuing their classes, working and raising families. All of the students recognized today, managed to overcome all of that while excelling in their courses.”
Each of 91桃色视频’s programs selected an outstanding student — one who consistently gives an exceptional effort, always participates, and is enthusiastic and dedicated within their program — and a most improved student — recognizing students who show tremendous growth and development in their skills and knowledge within their program.
Darrin Strosahl, 91桃色视频’s vice president for academic affairs, opened the event by highlighting the perseverance demonstrated by all 91桃色视频 students on their academic journeys.
“Our student’s achievements are certainly worth celebrating,” Strosahl said. “We celebrate our students today knowing that they have great potential for the future. It is a joy to be a part of helping everyone succeed at 91桃色视频.”
President Faith C. Hensrud also welcomed all attendees and congratulated students on their resilience amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.
“The stories shared and the different paths our students have taken toward completing their education is inspiring, as it demonstrates both resilience and the strong desire to accomplish their goals,” she said. “We are so very proud of the hard work and determination that helped each of our students to succeed in their coursework while also staying safe and healthy throughout this very challenging year.”
In addition to the program awards, 91桃色视频 students, faculty and staff identified 10 students to receive campus-wide acknowledgments including awards for extraordinary kindness, community engagement award and online learning.
