Leadership for the 21st Century
Dr. Jillian Bohlen was recently chosen as a member in Class20 of LEAD21. The primary purpose of LEAD21 is to develop leaders in land grant institutions and their strategic partners who link research, academics, and extension in order to lead more effectively in an increasingly complex environment, either in their current position or as they aspire to other positions. ADS is excited for this opportunity for Dr. Bohlen and can't wait to see what the experience brings to us here in the department.

CTL Senior Teaching Fellow for 2024-2025
Dr. Kari Turner was chosen as a CTL Senior Teaching Fellow for the coming academic year (2024-2025). The goals of this program are to provide senior faculty with: opportunities for the sharing of ideas with other dedicated, highly motivated, and innovative teachers from other disciplines who may have similar interests and who face similar teaching challenges; opportunities for professional and personal renewal; funding for an instructional project designed to strengthen courses and teaching methods in each participant's academic department; and reinforcement of UGA’s instructional environment as one that honors and recognizes dedicated teaching scholars; that values a synergistic relationship between teaching, research, and service; and that promotes a learning community spirit on a large campus.
Dr. Turner chose to use her grant money to purchase an injection simulator to further the hands-on learning experience for her equine and pre-vet students.
