Hats Off!

DEM is pleased to congratulate Admissions' own Lisa Prescott for being named PCACAC (Potomac Chesapeake Association for College Admission Counseling) Counselor of the Year!  This award recognizes PCACAC members who go above and beyond in their work with students, and selection considers areas of expertise, impact on constituents, advocacy for students and colleagues, commitment to equity, thoroughness, and innovation.

 

Lisa was humbled and proud to receive the award, as well as surprised by the nomination.  Her 17 years in the UD Admissions Office includes a growing territory from areas of New Jersey to a large portion of Pennsylvania, her "home turf."  She also works with local schools in New Castle County.  Her main focus in the office now is serving as the liaison with Athletics, both D1 and some club sports, as well as helping with Event Planning.

 

Please join us in giving Lisa a virtual pat on the back for her job so well done and this incredibly deserved recognition of her dedicated efforts.

Among Univeristy of Delaware alumni are three signers of the Declaration of Independence, a signer of the U.S. Constitution, a Nobel Prize-winning scientist, a Tony Award-winning choreographer, a First Lady of the United States, and the 46th President of the United States.

The private academy from which UD grew was founded in 1743, making it one of the oldest in the nation, and UD was chartered as an institution of higher learning in 1833.  Historian John Munroe touted UD's original class was "possibly the most distinguished in terms of the later achievements of its members, taken as a whole, of any class in any school in America."  Those first students would go on to become statesmen, doctors, merchants, and scholars.
