Shannon Cannon, who is pursuing her doctorate in Language, Literacy and Culture, received the 2009 Outstanding Graduate Student Teaching Award at a ceremony on April 6. On behalf of the Graduate Council, the Office of Graduate Studies, and the Teaching Resources Center, Chancellor Larry Vanderhoef presented the award to Cannon and 11 other UC Davis graduate students for their contributions to teaching and learning on the campus.

“Teaching in the multiple subject credential program has been such a rewarding experience,” Cannon said. “I am sincerely grateful for the opportunity it has given me to work with such wonderful faculty and students. Being recognized for doing what I am passionate about is an amazing honor.”
