Presidential Award of Excellence, 2013
Dean’s Office, College of Health and Human Services
It is very clear that Pamela Bishop is genuinely committed to her role as an advisor and cares about the students of the University of New Hampshire - inside and out of the College of Health and Human Services. Pam is recognized as a highly engaged academic counselor, day after day, year after year by her students and her peers. Students arriving in her office after the summer has passed are always pleased and honored that Pam remembers their name, college major and goals without even looking at their file.
The students that Pam serves appreciate and value her energy, compassion and kind nature, and are assured that she will do everything she can to help them find their way in their major, their academics and their career direction. Pam's methods of advising guarantees success because she is so invested in her students. She offers resources and strategies that are realistic and manageable and she follows up with her students to be sure what she recommended is indeed making a difference. She supports and allows her students to take accountability for their learning and to be the leader in their journey at UNH.
When Pam is not advising UNH students she is also engaged in the community as a volunteer for the?Seacoast Reads?program through the Department of Education.
One of her former advisees shares "Pam Bishop represents what every academic counselor should be like, she represents the optimism, opportunities and greatness that UNH possesses."
