Last Thursday I was surprised to learn I had won the University of Missouri’s Excellence in Advising Award. I knew I was nominated, but didn’t know I had won until the ceremony. The honor is a campus-level award given to one faculty member each year “who has demonstrated the qualities associated with outstanding undergraduate student advising.” I am thankful for my colleagues for supporting me and for my students for allowing me to learn with and through them.
