Sue Fletcher Assistant Professor of Communications year: 2009 school: Hocking College, Nelsonville, OH

In February 2010, Sue Fletcher, along with seven students from her freshman composition course, visited the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum with support from the Memorial Library. As part of their Holocaust studies and in preparation for the visit, Ms. Fletcher and her students read Olga Lengyel’s Five Chimneys. In an effort to bring their learning back to their own community, the college students produced two presentations on the theme “Remember What You Saw” to seniors at Tri County Career Center, a career and technical high school in Nelsonville. In recognition for their work, Ms. Fletcher and her students received a newly-created honor from Hocking College, the “We are One Hocking Cross Cultural Award.”
