When Tesha Hagler, the college\u2019s student outreach coordinator, received an e-mail from the university asking her to attend the campus Recognition of Excellence event at the Northridge Center on June 3, she wasn\u2019t sure what to expect. She knew that Dean Ramesh had nominated her for an award, but she thought that perhaps a couple of recipients per college would be recognized.<\/p>\n
When her name was called at the event, however, Hagler discovered that she was one of just five people campuswide to be honored with a CSUN Merit Award, which recognizes staff members\u2019 exceptional performance in their jobs.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was stunned,\u201d she says. \u201cI didn\u2019t know that he was nominating me for this award.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
An alumna as well as an employee of CSUN, Hagler earned a bachelor\u2019s degree in health science from CSUN in 2006 and a master\u2019s degree in education administration the following year. She began her career at CSUN in admissions and from there started working in student outreach and recruitment. She has worked for CECS since 2008.<\/p>\n
As a Merit Award recipient, she received a plaque, certificate and monetary prize.<\/p>\n
The Merit Award capped a season of accomplishments for Hagler, who completed her doctorate in higher education leadership from California Lutheran University in spring 2014.<\/p>\n
\u201cTesha is talented, hardworking, conscientious and one of the easiest persons to work with,\u201d Ramesh said in his nomination letter. \u201cHer radiant personality and genuine interest in helping those around her and her commitment to helping underrepresented students succeed in STEM disciplines are an asset to the college and CSUN. She truly makes \u2018CSUN Shine.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
