Supporting comments: "Dawn is an excellent student, highly motivated, creative, and she easily takes a leadership role in whatever she does. In the classroom, her approach encourages others to engage in discussion. Dawn is passionate about rugby, and her dedication and leadership are major reasons the women's rugby team will be representing Denison at the national tournament this spring. Eager to make the Catholic community on campus more vibrant and visible, she has enacted new programs during the year to give Catholic students an opportunity to further explore their faith. Having served in leadership positions in Students for Life for the past three years, she shares her convictions through action. She is not shy about expressing her thoughts and opinions, but she does so with obvious respect for others. This openness and respect often lead to those around her opening up and more freely expressing themselves. Her compassionate nature and desire to serve others have had a lasting impact on those with whom she has interacted."
