4 Amy Betz, mechanical and nuclear engineering, Carl R. Ice College of Engineering What does it mean to be smart and what other traits do we associate with smartness? I am often told, You don t look like an engineering professor. What does that mean? And why do people feel the need to tell me that?

5 Doug Walker, sports marketing, College of Business Administration To fully understand a marketing interaction, you have to experience it from both perspectives and in a way that makes you care about the outcome.

6 Colby Moorberg, agronomy, College of Agriculture Student engagement requires teachers to establish relevance. By using history, personal experiences and popular culture, we can provide context to establish the relevance students need to learn.

7 Linda Yarrow, food, nutrition, dietetics and health, College of Human Ecology Enjoy the journey and try to get better every day. And don t lose the passion and the love for what you do. (Nadia Comanici, retired gymnast and five-time Olympic gold medalist)

8 Daniel Kuester, economics, College of Arts and Sciences Faculty should meet students where they are whenever possible. If we can use examples provided by our students during the lecture, everyone wins.

9 Eleanor Sayre, physics, College of Arts and Sciences To say that a person feels listened to means a lot more than just their ideas get heard. It s a sign of respect. It makes people feel valued. (Deborah Tannen, linguistics professor at Georgetown University)
