Two Awards at The University of Olivet

On April 17th, 2024, I was awarded two important awards at The University of Olivet: 1) Doctors Gorton and Peggy Riethmiller Award for Excellence in Teaching, and 2) the Presidential Distinguished Medalist – Most Influential Professor. The first is voted upon by the student body, and the second is given by a top five graduate of the senior class. I was nominated for the latter by Chelsea Wiltse, one of my Philosophy and Religious Studies students. Below is me at Convocation with Sydney Lynch, one of my very gifted and talented students, as well as a dinner I had with The University of Olivet President Steven Corey and Kelly Corey, with my students, Chelsey Wiltse, Taylor Darhower, Garrett Ennis, Sydney Lynch, and Sarah Zaharian, as well as my wife.
