Dr. Laura Agnich and Mock Mediation Club Recognized with University Awards
Dr. Laura Agnich was awarded the 2014-2015 University Award for Excellence in Service, which is designed to “recognize and reward faculty who use their academic disciplines to provide non-compensated assistance to the community and region, as well as in the academic arena.” Dr. Agnich is the faculty advisor of the Mock Mediation Club which was recently awarded two 2015 awards, Small Student Organization of the Year and New Student Organization of the Year, by the Office of Student Leadership and Civic Engagement.
