The 30-foot-by-10-foot interactive mural encouraged students to reflect on their intentions for the year.
The award is presented to up to three staff or faculty members each month in recognition of their efforts to transform the lives of UMSL students and the wider community.
Paintings, drawings and prints from Michael Behle, Valerie Dratwick, Phil Robinson and Jeff Sippel are currently on display.
He graduated in May with an interdisciplinary studies degree combining art, business, political science and communication.
The group of 25 students, ranging in ages from 13 to 18, worked together to come up with three distinct ideas for youth programming at the upcoming park.
Sippel exhibited work alongside a former student, Nebojsa Lazić, who lives in Serbia.
In addition to helping moms through the labor and delivery process, she’ll also work in the antepartum and triage units, as well as the Mercy Natural Birthing Center.
She is focused on supporting students and also building up the college’s alumni presence, including reinstating a quarterly newsletter showcasing alumni achievements and hosting the annual August Academe.
The recent graduates joined Associate Clinical Professor Dr. Linda Marks for an I Care International clinic in San Alejo in March.
An Opportunity Scholar, Fayez is headed to the College of Architecture at Washington University in St. Louis this fall.
