Cheryl Montgomery<\/strong>, director of auxiliary services at Eastern Mennonite University, was honored as the National Association of College Auxiliary Services<\/a>\u2019 East Regional Volunteer of the Year.

The National Association of College Auxiliary Services is the largest professional auxiliary services support organization serving higher education.

Montgomery has been at EMU for nearly 14 years. She oversees all aspects of facilities-oriented revenue generation. A major part of her role is serving as the liaison between the university and outside vendors providing those services. She also works closely with groups and organizations that rent EMU\u2019s facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe at EMU have long known that Cheryl is a hardworking, skillful, and visionary leader for our complex auxiliary services operations,\u201d said Provost Fred Kniss<\/strong>. \u201cIt is gratifying to know that her professional colleagues see those same qualities. We are proud to congratulate her for this well-deserved award!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Montgomery brings years of experience in the field. Prior to her work at EMU, she served NACAS for 10 years as director of business services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe nominated Cheryl because of her dedication,\u201d said NACAS East Regional President Anthony Coschignano<\/strong>, of Swarthmore College. \u201cShe steps up to help and volunteer whenever it is needed even outside her role on the board. She was an intricate part of the planning for our regional conferences and our most recent national conference as well.  She is very deserving of this award due to the time she has put into volunteering with the organization.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Montgomery said she was \u201chumbled and honored\u201d by the recognition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNACAS is a group of colleagues that have become my second family for the past 20 years, for 10 years when I worked there and for the last 14 while I\u2019ve been at EMU,\u201d she said. \u201cStaying in touch with other auxiliary professionals allows me to brainstorm challenges I might have with someone that has a solution, or learn about a new way to increase revenue on campus from another institution. It\u2019s been an invaluable connection.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Montgomery is also a member of the Association of Collegiate Conferences and Events Directors-International<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
