Bozeman -- Adele Pittendrigh, associate dean of the Montana State University College of Letters and Science, was recognized as one of 10 national "Outstanding First-Year Student Advocates" by the National Resource Center for the First-Year Experience at the University of South Carolina and the Houghton Mifflin Company.
Pittendrigh will be honored at the 25th Annual Conference on the First-Year Experience in Atlanta in February.
