Employee of the Quarter

Rochelle Darragh and Raj holding award

In recognition of the dedication of our USA employees, we are pleased to announce that Ms. Rochelle Darragh, Distance Learning Specialist II, in the Innovation in Learning Center, has been selected as USA Employee of the Quarter for the first quarter of 2021. 

The student success mission of the University depends heavily on the quality of instruction that is offered to them. Technology can be an enhancer, but can also be a barrier for faculty to create effective learning environments for their students. Rochelle’s work in CANVAS training and troubleshooting to help faculty create easy to navigate and organized course sites has helped students succeed at South. COVID-19 presented many challenges, but Rochelle contributed long hours to teach, troubleshoot and hold many online training sessions to ensure the success of our students and faculty. It is important to note that she has completed all of the above with a smile on her face. She never hesitated to embrace these new challenges even in the wake of COVID-19.  Through all of this, she remained accessible and was willing to spend the time required to make a smooth transition. Her assistance has been invaluable, lessening the burden for course faculty, while doing so with a pleasant attitude, regardless of the stress of the situation. Without question, she deserves this recognition. She has certainly enriched the team of staff and students at the ILC and will continue to do so with grace and professionalism. 

In recognition of Rochelle’s commitment to excellence, the announcement of this award took place at the Board of Trustees meeting, on Friday, March 5, 2021.
