These are some quotes from students who shared something about Dr. Vanderzalm during the voting process:
One of Dr. Vanderzalm's advisees described what makes her such an excellent advisor in this way:
"Parents, managers, and friends who one thinks of, typically, as having a lifelong effect on another as their mentor have the benefit of spending months, years, even decades together. I have met with Dr. V in her capacity as an advisor only once a semester and for no more than an hour, yet she has had an impact on par with any one of the people I mentioned. Although there are many exceptions, a put-down culture among peers and professors unavoidably creeps into college courses and life. Often, I have come to Dr. V after a difficult semester of classes, and unlike some of these individuals, she hears and acknowledges my difficulties and develops a plan to make things better for the next semester. In stark contrast to the every-man/woman-for-themselves culture that I may see in others, Dr. V has always given me praise and criticism in the most constructive way that does not make me feel less than or not good enough."
Another student gave this example of Dr. Vanderzalm鈥檚 commitment to advising:
鈥淚'd like to conclude my nomination with one more anecdote about my advisee experience with Dr. Vanderzalm. This took place in the Fall of 2023, during a very busy time of the semester (about a month prior to finals). Registration for the following semester was approaching, and Dr. V was in the midst of helping her parents pack/move out of their long-term home. As I had seen my parents go through a similar process the previous summer, I could only imagine how stressful this was for Dr. V at such a busy time of the year. Nevertheless, Dr. V made sure to schedule virtual advising meetings while she was out of town. This demonstrates Dr. V's tendency to go above and beyond, and her commitment to her students鈥 success." Finally, a third student succinctly summarized the reasons for this award by saying:听
"Simply put, Dr. V epitomizes excellence in academic advising. Her unwavering commitment to this duty reflects a profound investment in the success and growth of each student she guides. Because of her time, effort, and dedication to her students in this capacity, she deserves this recognition." 听

Distinguished Honors: This is Dr. Welki鈥檚 second time receiving the The Dr. William F. O鈥橦earn Memorial Endowment Award for Faculty Advising. He already received this award in 2017. In 1992, 1997, 2002, and 2008, he received the Wasmer Award , which recognizes teaching excellence in the Boler College of Business at 精东AV. He also received 精东AV鈥 s Distinguished Faculty Award in 2005, which recognizes teaching excellence, personal scholarship, advisement and leadership of students, and community service. Dr. Welki鈥檚 university service includes more than 20 years as the Faculty Representative to the Ohio Athletic Conference and the NCAA. Within the conference he has held a number of leadership positions.
These are some quotes from students who shared something about Dr. Welki during the voting process:
"Andy Welki played a critical role in enabling me to create a schedule that allowed for flexibility in my undergraduate studies - this flexibility has given me the opportunity to come back and use my final year of eligibility as a JCU athlete. The planning involved in this advising saga entailed multiple meetings over the holiday break and on numerous occasions, Prof. Welki went above and beyond by reaching out to other faculty members across the university on behalf. With Welki's help, I am now able to fully maximize my undergrad education experience, creating a synergistic mix of majors and minors that greatly increased my knowledge base and makes me a far more attractive candidate in the job market and for being accepted into a prestigious graduate school. Simply said, this would not have been possible without his help along the way. Thank you, Welki!"
"Dr. Welki is not my personal advisor, but I envy anyone who has him. He really helped me navigate JCU when I was incredibly lost after my freshman year. I switched majors from Biology, Pre-Vet, to Communications with a Digital Media Concentration and simultaneously lost my biology advisor. I went to him hoping there was something that he could help me with. He understood my anxiety in not graduating on time, not knowing what I wanted to do for a career, and the mental strain of trying to find what I was passionate about. He recommended that I take different classes in different schools to see which ones I enjoyed the most. He walked me through the process of scheduling, making sure I was getting through the core requirements, while also giving myself free time and a swim practice time slot. He really helped me find my passions, all while building my confidence without any expectations of anything in return. He goes out of his way to be involved on campus, with athletic teams, with students, parents, and visitors alike. I cannot thank him enough for helping me step into who I am and for taking me under his wing when I didn鈥檛 know who else to turn to. Dr. Welki is certainly a man for others and I鈥檓 very blessed to say that I know him."

Courses
Dr. Barnes鈥 primary teaching interests include Foundations in sociology, Self & society, Sociological research methods, Sociology of the Family, Sexuality & sexual behavior, and Gender, health & medicine.
Research
Dr. Barnes鈥 research examines the intersection of family, gender, and work during the transition period to parenthood. Other research interests include ideologies of motherhood and fatherhood, gender discrimination in the labor market, and new reproductive technologies. In addition to presenting locally and nationally on these subjects, she has published articles in the Journal of Family Issues, Qualitative Sociology Review, and Journal of Consumer Culture. Her most recent publications include:

Dr. Medora Barnes exemplifies concern for all students in her role as a professor and academic advisor. As my primary major advisor in the department of Sociology & Criminology, she has pushed me to pursue full course loads and entertain discernment about law school. I was first introduced to Dr. Barnes virtually via Zoom as a rising upperclassman. This could have hindered our ability to connect, yet Dr. Barnes never let this format impede her ability to be a mentor. She has always been proactive about setting up one-on-one meetings with her ahead of scheduling and has always been attuned to the future plans of her students. Dr. Barnes also very intentionally empowers students to take charge of their own advising sessions and academic trajectory, while still offering a measured amount of honest feedback and advice when appropriate. As a co-chair of the interdisciplinary Population & Public Health minor, she has guided me toward the pursuit of not only this rigorous minor complementing my other disciplines but also compelled me to acquire a Masters of Public Health upon commencement. Dr. Barnes encouraged me to aim high for my next educational endeavor. She was also quick to offer her services in writing my letters of recommendation for graduate school applications, and, in part due to her connectedness with me and ability to write a genuine letter, I was admitted to all of my desired programs. She and I celebrated when I landed myself among the top institutions in the nation for my graduate program of study. I have taken four of her courses spanning three semesters. Dr. Barnes invited me to enroll in several of her electives, like Gender, Health, and Medicine, or Sociology of the Family because she knew I would find them interesting and they would satisfy multiple requirements for me. In each of her classes, her care and concern for students are evident through regular check-in questions. Whether you are an advisee of hers or not, she is approachable and accommodating to all students in the classroom setting and beyond. Furthermore, I believe that Dr. Barnes seldom gets the recognition she deserves.

His office door is always open, whether it is for a 5-minute chat or an hour-long conversation. After moving to remote-learning, Dr. Chai鈥檚 dedication to his advisees continued when he was only a phone or Zoom call away. As we navigate this semester with the COVID-19 pandemic, he frequently checks-in and goes above and beyond in his efforts to provide extra support. The intentionality that Dr. Chai puts into the work he does as an advisor is unmatched. Dr. Chai pushes me to pursue my academic goals, holds me accountable, and proactively provides me with opportunities to further my career. 鈥 Dr. Chai is a very caring advisor and very committed to helping his advisees and contributing to their personal and professional development. Dr. Chai鈥檚 advising and mentorship exemplifies the Jesuit philosophy of cura personalis and having him as an advisor has made a huge impact in my experience at 精东AV."
