Ashley Wellman Receives Learning to a Greater Degree Award for Commitment to Engaging Students
For Ashley Wellman, being an educator is more than just a job. Her infectious passion for teaching, learning and service led her to receive the Learning to a Greater Degree award. As an assistant professor in Criminal Justice, Wellman is known for giving students opportunities to succeed inside and outside the classroom. Last fall, students in her Honors Colloquium Victim Advocacy course experienced service learning by partnering with local non-profits to plan and facilitate multiple projects.
"My goal is for my students to leave my classroom with a love of learning, greater self-worth, awareness, compassion and the ability to adapt their interests and knowledge to a career that is fulfilling," says Wellman.
Wellman also exemplifies a culture of by service by serving as a sexual assault victim advocate, student group advisor, community educator, and partner with local survivor agencies. Her research on cold case homicide survivors continues to guide her mentorships, community service partnerships and scholarship goals. In Wellman's nomination, a student highlighted her commitment to serving others and teaching has touched minds and hearts on a personal level.
By inspiring her students to embrace a life-long commitment to service, Wellman embodies learning to a greater degree.
