Michelle Fellows has been selected as College of Western Idaho’s (CWI) Faculty of Distinction for November.
Fellows is a tremendous asset to the college. In addition to serving as chair of Curriculum Committee, she leads the Psychology department’s course and program assessment, participates in Gen Ed evaluation and CWID advisory, and helps many other departments outside of her own with statistical analysis. She was nominated by a colleague who recognizes her many contributions to CWI and says she is a kind person who truly cares about others and works to ensure that her co-workers aren't overwhelmed or discouraged.
Fellows grew up in Meridian. She received a bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Boise State University, and then went to The University of Texas at Austin for a Ph.D. in Psychology. She enjoys hiking, botanizing for native plants, gardening, cats, and ice cream. Her goal as a teacher is to help students remember how much fun learning is by linking material to the real world whenever possible and encouraging their curiosity.
Please join in congratulating Michelle on her recognition.
