Congratulations to Lynn Tordella, the recipient of the 2005-2006 JJ Staff Scholar Award.
This scholarship, named in honor of former president James J. Whalen, gives eligible staff members enrolled in a degree program at Ithaca College a cash award that can be used to defray the cost of their education. This is the tenth year the award has been given.
Lynn is an administrative assistant in the School of Humanities and Sciences and is enrolled as an English major.
In order to be considered for the award, candidates must be full time staff members of the College, working at grades 2 to 16. They must also be matriculating seniors who have completed at least 90 credits toward graduation and are maintaining at a GPA of 3.2 or higher. Length of service is also a consideration -- Lynn has been working at the College since the autumn of 2000.
For more information on the JJ Staff Scholar Award, please contact Mary Askew, committee chairperson, at 274-1514.
