51³Ô¹ÏÍø

Qunxing Ding, Ph.D., associate professor of biology on the East Liverpool and Salem campuses, was celebrated as the first recipient of University Libraries' Open Educational Resources (OER) Faculty Champion Award during the Spring Faculty Club on April 15.

This recognition is University Libraries’ inaugural award designed to recognize and reward 51³Ô¹ÏÍø faculty who have successfully implemented OER in their courses and, in turn, are enhancing student learning and engagement while removing financial barriers to accessing class content.

51³Ô¹ÏÍø at East Liverpool held its annual nursing pinning ceremony May 7,  during which 27 students were recognized for receiving degrees through the associate degree in nursing (ADN) program.

Kim Steele wears many hats as a 51³Ô¹ÏÍø at Salem employee: she teaches; she advises; she coordinates; she directs.

Her titles include: coordinator and advisor for the Human Development and Family Science program; academic advisor for the Bachelor of Social Work program; and academic program director for Human Services.
