“I have worked with Lacretia in a variety of capacities, all in which she has served in high leadership role and was selected for those roles on the basis of her work ethic, cooperative & collaborative personality, honesty, integrity, and intelligence. Lacretia is a very hard worker and as a colleague brings out the very best in others. She is not afraid to accept constructive criticism and works diligently to better herself and her work in all she does.

 

Lacretia is detail oriented and reliable and is able to consider a variety of viewpoints and issues in the performance of her job. As a CLC she would often have to deal with difficult and tricky issues, and would have no problem making decisions and doing what was best for all concerned, even if it was not a popular decision.

 

I have worked in a variety of university capacities, as a chapter advisor for Lacretia's sorority, in which capacity I worked with Lacretia, as her chapter's regional coordinator, as well as a regional director. By trade I am also a university professor. Through all these various university experiences I would say Lacretia tops my list out of all the young women I have worked with, both as a professor and a sorority advisor, as someone I would hire, that I would want to work with, and that would be the most reliable and capable in her duties.

 

I would offer her my very highest  recommendation. This is not a statement I make lightly as I have worked with at least a thousand young women.”

“Lacretia has performed admirably as a leader in several capacities. She was a mentor tutor, which required her to be a role model and tutor trainer. Also, she was an administrative tutor, which is the highest undergraduate position possible within the Writing Center. Administrative tutors are  responsible for managing tutorials during work hours, running trainings, and troubleshooting problems in weekly meetings.

 

Among the administrative tutors, Lacretia was the liaison to the managerial staff. She was responsible for relaying information between the two parties, which is an essential component of our internal communication. She performed these tasks efficiently and professionally. She was one of our program’s most experienced and reliable tutors. Her performance as an administrative tutor and liaison are the great examples of her professional leadership strengths.

 

Additionally, Lacretia worked as a facilitator of small group writing tutorials where she consistently earned high ratings from students for her approachability and knowledge. The following are comments come from her student evaluations:

 

“Lacretia's down to earth personality helped me to become comfortable sharing my work to the group. She is very accepting.”

 

“Lacretia was extremely knowledgable about writing and was more than willing to share her knowledge. She was instrumental in helping correct my papers and to developing me as a better writer. I honestly feel I have improved significantly in my writing ability because of taking this class."

 

"Lacretia was an exceptional tutor and I would recomend her to anyone who needed help with writing.”

 

Lacretia’s personable nature makes her a pleasure to work with and her demeanor is positive and professional regardless of whether she is interacting with students or faculty.”

“I had the privilege of supervising Lacretia when she served as a Government Affairs Intern for us in 2007. She is a very bright and talented individual, and I recommend her without reservation for any future endeavor.

 

Lacretia is an excellent writer and researcher, and I found her to be very focused on the tasks given her. Moreover, she is a very personable individual and professional in her dealings with others.”

“I had the privelege of having Lacretia in my media writing class at Washington State University. The class has a reputation of being one of the hardest in the Communication major, but Lacretia faced the challenge head on. Even when the grading scale was sometimes hard to swallow, Lacretia never got discouraged. She used every opportunity to learn from her mistakes and improve her writing. She was always able to see the big picture - she knew that honing her writing skills would be extremely valuable in her future career. As a result, she passed with the highest grade I ever handed out and made the most of a challenging learning experience. She continued to excel in the remainder of her college career.”
