<p>William Jewell College hosted its annual Celebration of Honors ceremony on April 23. The hybrid event was held in Gano Chapel with a limited number of attendees spaced out in the auditorium &#8211; to comply with COVID-19 restrictions &#8211;  and all other attendees watching the event via Zoom. This was the first celebratory event held in Gano Chapel since Jewell introduced COVID-19 safety guidelines last year. <br></p>



<p>The Celebration of Honors, held the same day as <a href="https://hilltopmonitor.jewell.edu/jewell-to-host-annual-duke-colloquium-in-a-virtual-format/">Duke Colloquium</a>, is a chance for the College to honor student achievement, which includes the presentation of the prestigious <a href="https://hilltopmonitor.jewell.edu/2021-faculty-award-finalists-announced/">Faculty Award</a>. <br></p>



<p>The 2021 Faculty Award winner is Jackson Still, economics and political science major from Lubbock, Texas. Still is a member of the Cardinal golf team and Mortar Board. During his time at Jewell, Still co-founded the Cardinal Union and served as its president. He also served in leadership roles in <a href="https://jewell.edu/live/activities/fiji">Phi Gamma Delta</a>, <a href="https://www.jewell.edu/live/activities/college-union-activities#:~:text=CUA%20members%20plan%20and%20promote,bring%20people%20together%20on%20campus.">College Union Activities</a>, and <a href="https://jewell.edu/live/activities/student-senate">Student Senate</a>. After graduation, he will be an academic intern at The Fund for American Studies Program in Washington, D.C., while attending George Mason University. <br></p>



<p>Still credits this award to “the men of Phi Gamma Delta here at Jewell and all they have done to push me to become the man I am today,” as well as his professors for their dedication. According to Still, “acceptance of the Faculty Award is a testament to the exceptional community that we have at Jewell more than it is a recognition of any individual achievement.”&nbsp;<br></p>

<p>On April 24, William Jewell College celebrated student achievement despite the COVID-19 related cancellation of the annual Honors Convocation. Usually, Jewell will host an event to read the names of student winners of institutional awards, highlight the achievements of the Faculty Award finalists, celebrate student achievement in music and announce the Faculty Award winner. This year, Jewell printed a listing of awards and posted about the <a href="https://hilltopmonitor.jewell.edu/2020-faculty-award-finalists-announced/">Faculty Award finalists</a> on their <a href="https://www.facebook.com/WilliamJewellCollege1849/">Facebook page</a>.</p>



<p>“[The listing] looks very much like the event program without the music and speaking parts. We will mail those to all 139 of the award recipients, along with any checks or scholarship letters on Friday as well,” said Susan Arbo, director of ceremonies and signature events. “The seniors will also receive any certificates, Phi Epsilon cords, Oxbridge medallions, departmental plaques and Faculty Award finalist and winner plaques. Most will go out on April 24 or April 27. A few other departmental awards had not yet been prepared so those will go out this summer.”</p>



<p>The Faculty Award finalists were <a href="https://www.facebook.com/WilliamJewellCollege1849/">highlighted</a> – one per day – in the week leading up to the announcement, and the College posted a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gB3lnM8D2Y&amp;feature=youtu.be&amp;fbclid=IwAR37elUYyvltCvHF9K8fqsPhU1O-hLNymJZ8STghvyicnjzd_YxnNESY3v4">video announcing the winner</a> April 24.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Margo Evilsizor, senior international relations and Oxbridge: Institutions and Policy major, won the 2020 Faculty Award.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Throughout her time at Jewell, Evilsizor used Jewell’s Hall Grant to conduct field research interviews in Mafraq, Jordan, for her international relations honors thesis on women’s empowerment in the Syrian Civil War. With the Pritchard Humanitarian Award she spoke out against violence against women at a self-organized public forum at the state congress in Morelos, Mexico. Evilsizor has also co-authored an article with Dr. Fletcher Cox, professor of political science, about women’s empowerment. She is president of Pi Sigma Alpha and vice president of Mortar Board, in addition to being involved in Christian Student Ministries and handbell choir.</p>



<p>After graduating, Evilsizor will move to Mexico City to take part in a Fulbright Program. Her long-term goals include providing women with more opportunities –&nbsp;potentially by impacting public policy with a law degree or starting a business to employ or microfinance women.</p>



<p>“I am extremely grateful for the faculty at Jewell. Winning the Faculty Award was one of many times over the course of four years where I’ve felt encouraged, supported and believed in by the faculty. I cannot thank them enough. I feel deeply grateful for their mentorship and investment in my life,” said Evilsizor.</p>



<p>“While I wish I could have been there to celebrate with everyone in person, I’m glad I got to be with my family and reflect on my time at Jewell with them,” continued Evilsizor. “After the announcement was released on Facebook, one of the things that we talked about was how impressive the other finalists are. I never expected to win –&nbsp;I felt honored to have even been placed in the same group as Caeley, Sofia, Tate and Elliott. Once again, thank you to all the faculty, staff and friends who have touched my life throughout the four years. I’m going to miss doing life on the Hill.”</p>



<p>Because the ceremony could not be hosted as usual, Arbo discussed Jewell’s alternative plans to honor student achievement.</p>



<p>“In the fall, we are planning to hold a reception in the Union Atrium where the students will be able to mingle with professors and pick up their awards. Ideally, it may be held the same weekend as the rescheduled Commencement ceremony so that the graduating seniors could attend as well,” said Arbo.</p>
