June 2020 Advisor of the Month

Check out some of the wonderful things our advising colleagues have done this past month! Thank you to each of you for all of your hard work and dedication to the students in your areas and OSU!

Mouris Danial Mouris is an amazing colleague, teacher and advisor. Our advising leadership received the message below from the parents of one of our students. We could not be more proud, or humbled to work each day with Mouris. In these trying times, we know he will lead his new freshmen this fall with calm professionalism, creating a space that is safe and challenges perceptions for his students. OSU and Fisher College are lucky to have Mouris on our team.

*****We are sending this email to recognize Mouris Danial for his professionalism, compassion, and fairness. After talking to several different people, (student) was fortunate enough to speak with Mr. Danial.

Mr. Danial kindly and patiently listened to (student). Mr. Danial gave (student) helpful, and thoughtful advice. He did not treat (student) as just “a number.” Additionally, Mr. Danial returned (student)’s emails in a timely and professional manner.

We can honestly say as parents that Mr. Danial was instrumental in helping (student) regain his motivation and desire for academic studies.

Ali Grandey Incredibly supportive to our students and myself. Ali has skillfully and transitioned into her new role at the university under these very unusual circumstances.
Mike Knisley Mike approaches all of his work with care and concentration. He is always willing to help out and provides excellent student support. He is warm, calm, positive, and truly cares about others. He is a joy to work with and I am so proud to have him as a colleague and friend.
Trisha Ritter Trisha continues to show her support for students and everyone on our team as we have gone through many changes in our unit and our working environment. She has recently been working on moving orientation to a fully virtual event for her special population of students. While doing this, she still has been fully present for her large roster of students. She is always a reliable resource for support and problem solving for our team and I am not sure what we would do without her!
Hillary Stanley Hillary has been instrumental in crafting pre-nursing orientation, and assisting with pre-nursing students. Her communication and openness has helped tremendously, especially while working virtually. You go girl!
