The Kevin Hansen Green Jacket Award

Since the death of our colleague Kevin Hansen, we have recognized a faculty/staff member who reflects the dedication and student-centered service that he modeled with the Green Jacket Award.

  • Trust in God
  • Get motivated
  • Try harder
  • Be joyful always
  • Imitate Christ
  • Give God your best self
  • Heroic virtue
  • Do what’s right. Do it for Christ

  • Avoid sin at all costs
  • Progress every day
