Alana Belcon was one of the five professors nominated this year. Originally from Trinidad and Tobago, she is now a part of the Advisory Committee for Spatial Studies in the College of Arts and Sciences at Redlands. She rose above the rest, according to those who voted for her,

She is not only a great professor, but also a great person.” Read more about this chapter's event in the spring issue of the
