Congratulations to Felicity Sarnoff on being named the Liberal Arts college marshal for Penn State's Fall 2024 Commencement! Student marshals are chosen based on outstanding academic achievement and contributions to Liberal Arts student life. Felicity spoke about their experience at the Writing Center as a contributing factor for their success, telling Penn State Today, “Being a writing tutor was a very impactful experience for my professional and academic development...It allowed me to develop my interpersonal skills and pedagogical philosophy by getting one-on-one tutoring experience with international students as well as domestic students.” Read more about their achievement at https://lnkd.in/giArkux5
