Meet Melissa, our new Student Engagement Assistant!

Melissa joined CCSR in October of 2014 as an intern assisting with our student engagement and VISTA projects.

Not long out of college, Melissa graduated from Northern Michigan University (NMU) in May 2013 with a bachelor’s degree in physical education. While at NMU she was a member of the varsity track and field team; participating in the pentathlon and heptathlon. She also has been an avid equestrian her entire life with a special love for rodeo. For the last five years she volunteered with the Great Lakes Rodeo as the queen and court coordinator after passing on her own crown in 2009. When she’s home in Michigan, she competes in barrel racing, team penning, team roping and bull riding with her two geldings, Kenny and Scotty. (Pictured)

  1. I have heard about digital libraries. In taiwan Ipads are given to Students. This is indeed good for them to learn effectively in this modern era but Student Engagement in the class should also be given equal importance in order to complete the mission of Effective Teaching and Learning
