Although all nominated student employees are recognized and appreciated, mechanical engineering and technology major Callie Stout was this year’s winner. Stout has excelled in her position as a technology lab assistant, completing various tasks such as tours, recruiting and lab work. Since Stout has pushed herself to become more comfortable with being socially and professionally involved, she can “honestly say that getting out of your comfort zone is always good.” Stout also reminds us that establishing relationships with our faculty and peers is an important part of finding success.

President Martin, 

“National Student Employee week is such a special time. Our best student employees are dedicated, creative and resourceful. It’s truly a win-win situation: we get the benefit of their enthusiasm and initiative, and the student employees get hands-on experience in professional environments.”
