Kenna Reeves, instructor in the Department of Communication and Theatre Arts, received the award during a recognition ceremony April 11. This is the most prestigious campus award a faculty member can receive as the recipients are selected solely by students. Kenna Reeves was selected as this year's recipient for her exemplary leadership both in the classroom and in student activities. The purpose of the Xi Phi Outstanding Faculty Award is to recognize faculty members who have made significant contributions to the ESU community.
Faculty are eligible after five years of employment.
The Xi Phi selection committee is composed of three Xi Phi members, a student from each undergraduate class, a graduate student, the Xi Phi faculty advisor, and the previous recipient. She wants her students to understand the effects of her lessons. Most of Kenna's students want to please her. She has helped us in more ways than we can explain, so in turn we do not want to ever disappoint her. Kenna's enthusiastic energy can motivate anyone.
