Supporting comments: "Brandi is a quiet leader who invests in visions for the development of organizations, communities and individuals. Often the community or the team or organization depends on such people, and recognizes them by electing them to posts where reliability is essential, where hard work is the foundation, and a steady, calm and generous attitude toward others is the cornerstone. In class, she is highly attuned to the many issues and needs of others across social identities and has a natural gift for building on the ideas that others bring, for connecting and synthesizing ideas. Her wisdom and maturity have served her well in her many contributions to both Women’s Studies and Black Studies as well as in her co-curricular work with the Black Student Union and America Reads."
