The College of Education and Health Professions announces the selection of five student ambassadors for the 2008-09 school year.
The ambassadors work one hour per week in the Boyer Center for Student Services, helping with prospective student inquiries and other tasks. They also attend recruiting events with Boyer Center advisors and assist at special events such as the college's annual Honors Convocation and Commencement.
The student ambassadors:
- Samantha Buckmaster of Cabot, a childhood education major
- Ally Carlyle of Nashville, a childhood education major
- Lindsey Fairchild of Fort Collins, Colo., a kinesiology major
- Diana Perez of Fort Smith, a nursing major
- Amanda Reed of Little Rock, a kinesiology major
The Boyer Center also uses a Facebook account to communicate both with currently enrolled students and prospective students. Advisors ask incoming freshmen to sign up at orientation, and they use Facebook to send messages to students about advising.
