Alumni, Family and Friends
There are two Distinguished Service Awards: the Distinguished Alumni Service Award and the Distinguished Service to Alumni Award. The Distinguished Alumni Service Award honors an individual who graduated six or more years ago. The Distinguished Service to Alumni Award honors a faculty or staff member or friend of Southern New Hampshire University. Both awards recognize the individual's leadership, dedication and loyal service to the university and the alumni community.
Becca Harris is an inspiring individual who has changed the lives of so many through her passion for service. While at SNHU, Becca fell in love with all things service, starting a work-study job in The Chandler Center and service-learning classes. Throughout her undergraduate experience, Becca held every student worker role possible, including service-learning coordinator, volunteer project coordinator, and Alternative Break leader. Now as an alum, Becca has turned her passion into a full-time job. Over the past 11 years, Becca has worked at nonprofit organizations with areas of focus ranging from grief, Down syndrome, and substance abuse disorder. When she isn’t working, she remains an active volunteer in her community, and she became the youngest woman to ever become president of her Rotary Club. The SNHU community has experienced her dedication to service firsthand through her involvement with Global Days of Service, at The Chandler Center, and as a classroom speaker. Becca’s generosity and investment in her community is nothing short of inspiring.
Dr. Amanda Dolan demonstrates dedication and commitment, leaving a lasting impact on SNHU, its students, and her community. With more than 15 years in education, she has a strong focus on the evolution of framework, which consists of practices and standards that position all educators to better serve students and their emerging needs. Amanda is actively involved in her community, dedicating her time and expertise serving as Chair of SNHU GC Women’s Empowerment Roundtable Scholarship Committee and as an active member of New England Education Research Organization, American Education Research Association, New England Educational Assessment Network, and Educators Explore. At SNHU, Amanda’s service shines beyond the classroom as an adjunct professor; she’s also a lead instructional designer and doctoral scholar practitioner, where she’s involved in advising and instructing campus-based cohort models. Amanda’s leadership can be seen from across the university and beyond as she continues to be a beacon of light to her students, our institution, and the field of education.
