Supporting comments: "Christilyn is a passionate person who lights up a room with her smile, her laughter, her positive demeanor, and her engaging interpersonal skills. Prior to her role as a senior interviewer, she worked as a student intern for the Admissions Office where she hosted prospective students, served on student panels and helped with recruitment of multicultural students. In these two leadership roles, she was superb in helping current students navigate challenges and opportunities at Denison and prospective students and their parents to understand the strengths and realities of Denison’s campus. Whether it’s with Student Global AIDS Campaign, Relay for Life or Hope for Autism, she possesses a unique mixture of intuition and intellect that feeds her concern for the suffering of others."
