Other PAC members in attendance were Maria Lazaro, Shelby Perry, Isabel Olivares, LaDeja Lotharp, Jessica Fleming and Bailey Miller, PAC advisor and assistant director for Campus Engagement.
“Having the opportunity to take a delegation to NACA is huge for UNCP,” shared Miller in a press release. This is the second year PAC has been recognized for its outstanding service and involvement with NACA. Last year they won the Outstanding Delegation Award.”
Miller co-facilitated roundtables focused on “Revisiting Your Why: Curbing Burnout in Higher Education” and “Reimagining Traditional Events on Campus” during the conference. Nick Courmon, an alumnus of UNCP, was among the conference presenters.
