As Amy Fish mentioned in our September newsletter, 2022 was one of the busiest years on record for SML’s academic programs with the highest number of student enrollments ever! Our Academic Committee (Eugene Won, Liz Craig, and I) take great pride in guiding students through the course selection and enrollment process. Engaging with students about our academic offerings starts now and doesn’t stop until well into May.
For me personally, one of the more rewarding aspects of my job revolves around SML’s student scholarships. I manage the disbursement of our need-based aid, merit-based awards, and other special scholarships such as the SML Diversity Scholarship. These scholarships are what makes it possible for many of our students to take a course at SML - this past summer, almost 70% of our undergraduate student population received a scholarship!
