Honors for Fletcher Faculty and Staff

Following up on a previous post, I thought I’d mention that Bernie Kelley-Leccese, a long-time member of Fletcher’s staff, will receive one of this year’s Tufts Distinction Awards at next week’s ceremony. These are the awards for which I was reading nominations in April, so I’m particularly excited that a member of the Fletcher community will be recognized. The staff had a little celebration for Bernie on Friday. It’s so nice when we can celebrate one of our own!

And Fletcher professor Leila Fawaz was recognized for her scholarship when she was named a Carnegie Scholar. You can read more in this article in the Tufts Daily, or on the Carnegie Corporation’s own site. It’s a great honor for Leila, and a wonderful opportunity for her to focus on her research.
