Faculty Excellence Awards for Adjunct Faculty

2024 Award Recipient

Megan Roberts, Criminal Justice

“Adjunct Instructor Roberts is a professional in her field and all-around good and humble person that this world needs more of,” said Faculty Senate President George Bedell in presenting the award. “As an instructor in CSM’s Criminal Justice program in the School of Professional and Technical Studies, Roberts brings forensic analysis to life for her students by giving them the opportunity to work a case from start to finish. She incorporates innovative activities in her classes, creating mock evidence her students can utilize for hands-on experiences and inviting guest speakers to talk about their roles in the profession. As a result, her classes have the highest enrollment in the department. She is currently helping to create a Criminal Justice Lab at CSM to further enhance the student immersive experience.”
