October Citizen-of-the-Month

The Office of Community and Ethical Standards tries to promote an environment which encourages students to uphold Clemson University's core values and community standards. To help us with this goal, our office awards a monthly award to a student who embodies the core values of Integrity, Honesty, and Respect. This award known as the Citizen-of-the-Month honors one Clemson student who was nominated by a member of the Clemson community because of the example he or she has set and for serving as a role model for other Clemson students.

This month our office would like for the entire Clemson community to help us honor Monica Ryskamp. Monica, is a senior Health Science: Health Administration major. Monica serves as the Treasurer for Clemson Undergraduate Student Government and she is a Resident Assistant in the Lightsey Bridge Apartments. Monica was nominated for this award by Verna Howell, Associate Vice-President for Student Affairs, for her role in bringing to light some of the questionable content on a Clemson related broadcast station. Working with the General Manager of the station, the problem was quickly alleviated and guidelines for future practice are in place.

Many thanks to Monica for ensuring the core values of Integrity and Respect have a place here at Clemson.
