First-year Counseling and Student Personnel Psychology program graduate student Tracy Buettner (below left) was one of seven students to receive the Graduate Student Award of the Women’s Philanthropic Leadership Circle (WPLC) at its annual awards celebration in June. Tracy was recommended for the award by her adviser, Dr. Marguerite Ohrtman. Because of her academic achievements, leadership, and passion for education, WPLC is awarding her a $1000 grant to be used for expenses while attending the Minnesota School Counselor Association annual conference held in May of this year in Brainerd, MN. Tracy has recently finished her first year of the graduate program, is working towards a master’s in counseling with a focus on school counseling, and plans to pursue a doctoral degree in the future.
