Meet the February 2020 Students of the Month
ON-CAMPUS STUDENT: AMARI MCGLORY
Amari McGlory is a psychology freshman majoring and working towards her Leadership Studies Certificate. Originally from Topeka, Amari is involved in various organizations and associations on campus. She is a part of the Student Government Association, Black Student Union, and Residence Hall Association and is on the Tiger Team and Hall Council. Amari spends her time watching Netflix, eating, and hanging out with her friends outside of school. At first, Amari considered Organizational Leadership as her major but decided to stick with the certificate. Introduction to Leadership Concepts has been her favorite and only leadership course she has taken so far. “It has taught me a lot about myself and how I can strengthen my leadership skills.” Congratulations, Amari!
FHSU Online STUDENT: COURTNEY HENDRICKSON
Originally from Laurel, Montana, Courtney Hendrickson is in her first semester of achieving her Master of Professional Studies in Organizational Leadership. Courtney is also working towards a certificate in accounting. She became involved in leadership studies when medically discharged from the military. While serving, Courtney took part in many leadership development training, which she loved. She said, “Due to my back injury, I have had to reevaluate my direction in life, and I knew leadership studies would be a part of it. It seemed that FHSU’s Leadership Programs fit my goals perfectly.” Courtney has enjoyed the course Organizational Systems, Change, and Leadership because the theories fascinate her, and the system is similar to a class she took in her undergrad. Outside of school, her hobbies include spending time with her family, cooking, baking, and learning more about wine, beer, animals, and new sociological theories. Congratulations, Courtney!
FHSU Online STUDENT: MADISON SHETLAR
In her last semester of graduate school, Madison Shetlar is finishing her Master of Professional Studies in Organizational Leadership. After taking a few leadership courses throughout high school and her undergrad, she became interested in leadership and “eagerly registered” when she found the MPS program through FHSU. Madison said, “I have loved the organizational leadership program and my professors. I have been challenged and learned a lot about myself and my organization.” Her favorite course has been Organizational Systems, Change, and Leadership because she took it when it was very relevant to her life, and it assisted her through the process of changes in administration. Madison works as a 7-12th grade art teacher and is very involved in her school. This school year, she works as the art club and middle school cheer sponsor and is the coach for middle school girls’ basketball and high school track. In her free time, she enjoys traveling around Kansas to find new restaurants and bars to eat at, working in her art studio, running, and relaxing at home. Congratulations, Madison!
