The College of Human Resources and Education will host four student recognition ceremonies in conjunction with the West Virginia University Week of Honors, April 13- 21.
Department of Speech Pathology and Audiology
The Department of Speech Pathology and Audiology will host its annual Senior Awards Ceremony on Friday, April 13 at 3 p.m. in the Blue and Gold Room in Lyon Tower in the Evansdale Residential Complex. Families are invited to attend the event, where seniors will be recognized for academic achievements.
Awards will be presented to seniors who presented outstanding capstone posters, which were selected by the entire Speech Pathology and Audiology faculty at a College poster session and later were invited to present their findings at the Annual Convention of the West Virginia Speech-Language-Hearing Association in March. These posters will also be displayed at the ceremony.
For more information, contact SPA Professor Dr. Carolyn Atkins at carolyn.atkins@mail.wvu.edu or 304-293-2377.
Department of Child Development and Family Studies
The Department of Child Development and Family Studies will recognize graduating seniors with the presentation of cords, departmental awards and the display of senior capstone projects on Thursday, April 19 at 1 p.m. at the WVU Nursery School. In addition, the children of the WVU Nursery School will honor CDFS students with their graduation song and give tours to family members.
For more information, contact CDFS Program Coordinator and Clinical Instructor Nancy Wolfe-Dilgard at nancy.wolfe-dilgard@mail.wvu.edu or 304-293-3345.
Benedum Five-Year Teacher Education Program
Students completing the undergraduate coursework of the Benedum Collaborative Five-Year Teacher Education Program will be recognized at a pinning ceremony at the Lakeview Resort and Conference Center in Morgantown. Hosted by Interim Dean Dr. Elizabeth A. Dooley, students and their guests will share their accomplishments at a celebratory brunch and recognition ceremony.
For more information, contact Benedum Five-Year Teacher Education Program Coordinator Sarah Steel at sarah.steel@mail.wvu.edu or 304-293-6762.
Department of Special Education
Because Special Education is an endorsement in both the Benedum Five-Year Teacher Education Program and Child Development and Family Studies, awards and cords for Special Education will be presented at both of those departmental events during the WVU Week of Honors.
