Supporting comments: "One would have to look long and hard to find a Denisonian who cares more about his college, who has been a stronger advocate for Denison students or who has shown more dedication toward making Denison an even stronger community and college. Whether serving as a Resident Assistant, chairing the Residential Life Committee his junior year, chairing Campus Affairs Council his senior year, or proudly representing our student body as DCGA President, Charlie's always level-headed and thoughtful style made it possible for him to work closely with faculty, staff and students. Always articulate and thoughtful in conversation, he has been an incredibly effective advocate for students. He is good for group morale and he can interact with and build bridges between people of quite different backgrounds. He has the important ability not to take himself or life too seriously, while acting in every moment to make his part of the world a better place. There should be some way to generate Charlie's particular brand of humility and confidence in all of our students. We all have benefited from his strong commitments, excellent service, and exceptional leadership."
