HDFS Professor Heather Fuller was recently awarded NDSU's Mentoring Excellence Award. A group of her students, including Emily Kinkade and Bryce Van Vleet, and Dr. Hektner nominated her for this recognition.

Dr. Fuller remarked, "Mentoring is one of, if not the most rewarding aspect of my job. It is truly a privilege to have the opportunity to mentor so many amazing students and help them achieve their goals and reach their full potential. I feel extremely lucky to learn from the unique experiences and talents of each of them, and I am honored and humbled to receive this award."
