We at the CSA have had the joy of working with Dr. Li, and are appreciative of her efforts to recruit leaders and give feedback in order to continually improve the SI program. We congratulate Dr. Li on this well-deserved award and look forward to our continued partnership in the future.

“Throughout my time at Salisbury, my most gratifying experience has been becoming a Supplemental Instructor and having the opportunity to work with you, Dr. Li. You were the first Economics professor I had as a first year, and I absolutely loved everything about your class. The way you engage students, support student learning, and express relentless enthusiasm each class showcases your dedication as an educator, and I will always admire that.

Throughout my time as your SI leader, I have witnessed first-hand how you dedicate each semester to enhancing student’s success, by creating new activities for students, adjusting your lectures, and working with me to discuss what students need help with… which is why it’s so important that we have Professors like you here at SU.

I am so grateful for the opportunity I’ve had working with you, but I can’t thank you enough for inspiring my love for economics and acting as my mentor throughout my time here. I am so happy for your achievement, and it makes me proud to be your SI Leader. You are the best professor I have ever had at SU and I am so excited to continue working with you, as well as take your health economics course next semester!” Darby Trout, SI Leader ECON 211

He always tries to find a way to help us help the students whether by helping us create worksheets, solve problems, or just checking up on us.

I am grateful and appreciative that I have gotten the opportunity to meet him, be taught by him and now to work with him.” Madjesca Limage, SI Leader MATH 160

Professor Barber was a big supporter during my first semester as an SI. He communicated effectively on his next move to ensure and reassure us that we were all on the same team. He gave us numerous opportunities to ask for help or answer any question. He was extremely flexible with meeting times and always asked my coworker and me how we were doing! Professor Barber always wanted us to prioritize our academic, mental, physical, and emotional health. I couldn't ask for a better Professor to SI for. He truly deserves this award and is our Campus Champion! -Jennet Daniel, SI Leader, MATH 160.
