Employee of the Year
The 2021-2022 Campus Recreation, Mick Ostrander, Student Employee of the Year is Kelly Cruise!
Kelly has worked for SIUE Campus Recreation Since January 2020 in multiple program areas, consistently delivering quality work every time she steps into the fitness center, focusing on teamwork and communication to allow her to be an empowering figure.
Along with her employment within Campus Recreation, this individual is involved with many other extracurriculars where she holds leadership positions, including:
-
- President of Phi Eta Sigma
- Vice President of the Student Economics Association
- A member of the Honors Student Association
- The Co-President of the Women’s Club Basketball Team
- The secretary of the School of Business ELITE Club
- A Financial Advisor Internship with Northwestern Mutual
- And a member of Beta Gamma Sigma
You may have stumbled upon Kelly in her Group Fitness classes, which are live weekly on both Instagram and Facebook, allowing her to provide flexible and adaptable fitness options to patrons, and unintentionally becoming a face of SIUE’s Group Fitness program
We are lucky to have another year with this Kelly, as she is expected to graduate in May 2023 with a double major in economics and psychology, and a minor in math (and currently has a 4.0!)
