We are so proud to acknowledge UArizona School of Art Associate Professor Kelly Leslie for receiving the CFA Undergraduate Mentoring and Teaching Award!! Congratulations Kelly for this amazing achievement!
"Being online for the last three semesters had caused me to question how effective my teaching and mentoring could be. It is very important to me that my students enjoy their college experience and achieve success in the future. As a first-generation college student myself, I am aware of the difficulties students may face when navigating academia. During this pandemic, we have all worked hard. Knowing that my colleagues acknowledge my commitment to our undergraduate students -especially during this period - makes this award even more meaningful." - @kellylesliedesign
