Dr. Rachel Romeo, Assistant Professor of Human Development and Quantitative Methodology, is the recipient of the NACS Faculty Mentor of the Year Award! The award recognizes faculty with outstanding achievement in mentoring NACS students. Dr. Romeo was nominated by several HDQM and NACS students including Ellen Roche, Victoria Alexander, Gavkhar Abdurokhmonova, Ben Rickles, Junaid Merchant, Ellie Taylor and S. Alexa Mcdorman. 

The following is a quote from the letter of nomination: “There are so many ways Rachel encourages me and this comes up in our everyday encounters. I think the biggest piece of her encouragement is (at least for me) implicit – just the unassuming, accessible, very open and kind person she is just by default…she is the role model of a successful and kind scientist, who despite her standing in the field will always find time to chat about what’s of interest to me or help if I need a piece of advice.”
