OLPD PhD student wins Shelly Joseph-Kordell Memorial Scholarship

Christina Cauble, a PhD student in the Department of Organizational Leadership, Policy, and Development, is a recipient of the Shelly Joseph-Kordell Memorial Scholarship. The scholarship provides up to $20,000 to graduate students committed to pursuing a professional career in aging services following the completion of their degrees. “Having worked in a nursing home during most of the COVID-19 pandemic, my interest was piqued on the topic of trauma in the workforce and how trauma impacts staff and organizations,” Cauble said. “I hope to be able to study the impacts of traumas big and small, inside and outside of work, and how they influence people and organizations.”
