2010 Minority Achievement
Award Winner

 

Dr. Carla Jackson Bell, College of Architecture Design and Construction director of multicultural affairs, was selected as the 2010 Minority Achievement Award recipient. She has contributed to improved race relations and fostered a sense of community within the university. Bell has demonstrated that recruiting, retaining, mentoring and supporting a less insular educational environment encourages students to share the experiences, understandings and aesthetics of their culture.

 

Her contributions have led to an approximately five percent increase in the success, retention and graduation rates of underrepresented students in CADC since she was hired in 2006. She will be honored at the 2010 MAIN Event homecoming dinner at President and Mrs. Jay Gogue's home on November 5.
