Jill’s program was selected from over 300 presented programs based on the program evaluation of over 2000 conference delegates from over 250 Colleges and Universities across the United States and world.

The program was titled “The Most Creative Program at NACURH 2007,” and focused on how developing individual creativity can greatly enhance teamwork, as well as ways to promote programs and organizations on campus. Her program focused on creative ways to promote programs and organizations on campus. Jill is this past year’s Public Relations Chair for Elon’s Resident Student Association (RSA) and is this year’s Campus Relations Chair.

Here is an excerpt from her nomination letter:

“Sarah truly cares about every person on her Resident Assistant staff. Not only does she bake practically on a weekly basis for staff, she opens up her home to her staff and is always extremely hospitable. Her cheerful and playful nature makes everyone feel at ease, yet she is one of the most professional people on 福利亚洲国产精品’s campus.

“She makes me want to be a part of something that means so much to her. I know that she is passionate about her job, because it shines through every facet of her personality and character. I admire her for her beliefs and values, and she is my mentor and role model. I came into this year unsure of how my advisor would be, and what she would be like. I never imagined that one person could make such a difference in people’s experiences. When I look around our weekly staff meetings, I know that each person looks up to Sarah, and knows that what we see is what we get. What I see is a leader, mentor, and most importantly, a dear friend.”

The goal of the 6-Week Challenge is to engage Elon students in positive interactions and events to build their connection to the campus during the first six weeks of the semester. Staff members had to accomplish this by sponsoring and promoting a program each week for the first six weeks of the semester. Some of the programs included supporting Orientation Weekend events, a white water rafting trip, a trip to the blood drive, bowling trip, ice cream socials, playing games at a church shelter, supporting Elon athletic events, mural painting, and a scavenger hunt to become more familiar with campus.

The student staff members who completed the challenge are Lana Yarmak, Leah Baker, Jen Davis, Beth Stevenson, Dan Hornyak, Nate Huret, Dorothy Cowan, John Darlington, Adam Foggia, Yolanda Smith, Scott Jansen, Katie Clair, Peter Wolf, Jennifer Mayfield, Chaya Compton, and Chassity Angeny.

Many groups helped to make this event possible. Sweet Signatures, the all female acappella group, performed some up-beat and inspiring songs. Twisted Measure also took time out of there busy schedule to perform three of their hits. The Elon Gospel Choir kicked off the night, and they brought down the house with their music of worship and praise.

The event moved many and was sponsored to share the dream of Hope Stout, whose dream was to grant the wishes of all the children in the Make-A-Wish program in the Carolinas. Fox 8 News came out to cover the event at Elon, as the event and Chris Hendricks were featured on last night’s news at 10:30. Chris, along with Evan White and Kevin Kindle, performed and entertained the audience throughout the evening and ended the concert with an amazing accomplishment: Chris, who has cerebral palsy, walked for the first time without any aids or support.

The event was sponsored by Resident Student Association, and was such a success that RSA hopes to make it an annual event in order to continue to support the “Make a Wish” Foundation.
