Introducing the Five Opportunity Areas of Student Success Recognition Program and Awards

by Maria O’Connell, University Innovation Alliance fellow, Undergraduate Student Success Strategic Initiatives manager

Studio portrait of Maria O'ConnellWe are thrilled to announce the launch of the Five Opportunity Areas of Student Success Recognition Program and Awards! This initiative marks the culmination of the recognition committee’s dedicated work throughout the fall 2024 semester to design a system that highlights and celebrates the incredible contributions to student success across MSU. Recognizing the amazing work that happens on this campus is something very important to me. It was a privilege to help lead this work and to be a part of such as talented and thoughtful recognition committee.  

The committee prioritized creating an accessible, barrier-free process that allows nominators to recognize exceptional efforts, whether through direct face-to-face engagement with students or behind-the-scenes work advancing policies and practices that support the five areas of student success.

A heartfelt thank-you to the recognition committee for their commitment, passion, and invaluable contributions to this recognition work! 

Committee Members:

  • Katie Burley
  • Jennifer Freitas
  • Makena Neal
  • Allison Shaw
