Meghan Boyle, a second-year kinesiology major from Summit Hill, has been named Student of the Month for November.

The Student of the Month award recognizes students for accomplishments outside of the classroom for displaying civility, overcoming personal obstacles, dedication to the community through volunteerism, and much more.

Boyle was nominated for the award due to her involvement and professionalism in the kinesiology program and the campus Exercise is Medicine on Campus (EiMOC) committee, particularly for her eagerness to learn and willingness to step up as a leader among the group, Boyle’s nominator wrote.

Boyle assisted during the campus’ recent Exercise is Medicine on Campus Day by providing support to fellow students. Taking her involvement in the committee a step further, she volunteered to present during a series of lectures at Lofstrom Library, according to her nominator.

“Her enthusiasm, kindness, and eagerness to gain more knowledge make her the perfect recipient of the student of the month award,” her nominator wrote.

Boyle said her experiences in the kinesiology program and the EiMOC have allowed her to “explore the benefits of physical activity in all aspects of life and share my knowledge with others.”

Boyle, a graduate of Panther Valley High School, plans to pursue a career in movement sciences after graduating.
