Overview
description
Dr. Galina Nicoll Siergiejczyk Dept: Germanic & Slavic Languages and Literature Nominators: Martha Geering
“Dr. Nicoll pushed me to embrace my Slavic heritage and that it is ok to be different. She encouraged me to connect with more people like me as well as she motivated me to add a Russian Major so I could be more involved in my culture. This was probably one of the best academic moves I have made. I have been able to connect back to my heritage that I never really wanted to embrace. Dr. Nicoll helped put a piece back into my life, that I had pushed away for so long.” - Martha Geering
