Dr. Kristy Tucciarone was named Professor of the Year by the Lindenwood Student Government Association at the May faculty meeting. She was surprised to receive the award, as the description from LSGA initially sounded like another professor. Tucciarone has had a positive experience in her first year at Lindenwood, where she appreciates the focus on teaching students. Her advertising students have already achieved successes such as national competition placements and awards that have led to internships and jobs.
