Annual Awards for Excellence Honors Students and Faculty

Five College of Business students and their chosen faculty members receive awards
|
Five College of Business students were honored at the 25th Annual
Awards for Excellence banquet, held this semester in the MSU
Strand Union Ballrooms.
The Awards for Excellence is sponsored by the MSU Alumni
Foundation and the Bozeman Chamber of Commerce and was
established with a goal of "bridging the gap between town and
gown."
The College of Business students were joined by more than 35
other senior-level students nominated by the faculty of their
respective colleges. Each student must maintain a minimum 3.5
GPA, must be involved in campus leadership and have demonstrated
an active role in community service.
Student nominations are forwarded to the Alumni Association who
makes the final decision and contacts the selected students. The
students who are nominated are then asked to select a mentor, a
faculty or staff member of Montana State University, who has
contributed to their success as students.
The senior students and mentors who were honored at this year's
banquet were: Erin Ahlgren, an accounting student from Billings
selected Dr. Bonita Peterson, professor of accounting; Tejeshwara
Chigateri, a management student from Bangalore, India, selected
Mr. Robert Diggs, adjunct instructor at the MSU College of
Technology; Julie Ho, a management student from Baker, selected
Camie Bechtold, associate athletic director for Bobcat Athletics;
Lucy McGree, an accounting student from Butte selected Dr.
Christie Johnson, assistant professor of accounting; and Inna
Omelyukh from Zaporizhzhya, Ukraine selected Susan Dana, JD,
Interim Associate Dean for the College of Business.
