The University of Wyoming College of Education has presented its first-ever UW Advising Student Choice Award to Levi Moore, advising manager in the College of Education Student Success Center.
The UW Advising Student Choice Award was created to highlight the role of academic advisers in supporting student achievement at UW. Moore's recognition underscores the impact advisers have in guiding students through their academic and professional goals. Moore was nominated by 29 students on the university's annual advising survey, a recognition of the consistent care and expertise he provides to College of Education students.
"I am deeply honored to receive the inaugural Student Choice Award for excellent advising at UW," Moore says. "Knowing this recognition comes from the students I work with in the College of Education makes it especially meaningful.
"I consider myself very lucky that I get to work with such amazing students every day," he continues. "I truly enjoy building relationships with students, providing them the tools to thrive in higher education and being part of their academic journey toward success. I also am grateful for the great team I work with in the College of Education Student Success Center who have supported me and made this recognition possible."
"Levi's award is such a well-deserved recognition of the care and dedication he brings to his students every day," says John P. "Jack" Ellbogen Dean of the College of Education Jenna Shim. "His work reminds us just how important professional advising is here in the College of Education and across the University of Wyoming.
"We all know that degree paths can sometimes be complicated, and our advisers are the ones who step in to provide clarity, support and encouragement, often going the extra mile to make sure students can keep moving forward," Shim adds. "I could not be prouder of Levi for this honor, and I am grateful to all of our academic advising professionals for the difference they make in our students' lives."
