91��Ƶר��

The academic year is almost over, so what do the graduates of 91��Ƶר�� College’s Graduate School think? For Teacher Appreciation Week, we wanted to know who their favorite professor at 91��Ƶר�� was and why. While everyone said that they loved all their professors, they were each able to pick one that stood out.

For Merrideth Wile, who will be receiving her , “all of the counseling staff are wonderful, but Dr. Laura Jones is an exceptional teacher and working counselor. Everything she does from the minute you walk into class until you leave models interventions you can use with students.” Dr. Jones is a school counselor in Frederick County Public Schools, was the Maryland School Counselor Association’s 2016 Counselor of the Year - for which she was invited to a celebration at the White House! - and 2018 Counselor Educator of the Year for her work with 91��Ƶר�� College students.

Lois Johnson-Mead graduated with an  last fall. As she explains, “I loved all my ENV professors; each one was devoted to a specialized ecological area, yet they all wanted their students to be in love with their specialty! I had the chance to learn from a variety of professors, to become a mini-expert in their field, and to grasp essentials concepts or as Dr. Eric Annis would say ‘make sure you were picking up what he was puttin’ down!’ How can you pick a favorite from a gaggle of favorites?” 91��Ƶר��’s Environmental Biology Program has an amazing group of professors, with 94 percent holding their Ph.D. All have a plethora of expertise in their field as well as practical experiences from involvement with groups from the National Cancer Institute to the National Park Service and the USDA.  

Tara Scibelli, graduating with an , mentioned Dr. Corey Campion “because he showed genuine concern for all the students in the program and was also an excellent lecturer.” Dr. Campion, Humanities Program Director, is a scholar of modern European history. He teaches a variety of courses on modern Germany and the history of the modern West and maintains an interest in the study of French and German language, culture, and politics.
