Lincoln Trail College honored faculty and staff members for their service at the 42nd Annual Service Recognition Night.
Retiring English Professor Dr. Ann Wolven was the recipient of the Excellence in Teaching Award. It is awarded to faculty members who have demonstrated sustained excellence and have adopted innovative or highly effective practices to aid student learning.
Wolven received multiple nominations for the award. Her letters of nomination noted her passion and skills as a teacher and reference the effect she has had on students. One of her nomination letters came from a student. “When I met Dr. Wolven, I did not feel like I was a ‘good student’. I struggled with deadlines, organization, and motivation. The workload was intimidating, and I felt like I was in over my head…she offered me help, she answered my questions, as she gave me every reason to trust both her and myself.”
