Christopher Lewis

Cooley Law School Director of Enrollment Programs and Student Services Dr. Christopher Lewis has earned the Distinguished Service to the Profession Award for Region IV-East of the National Association of Student Personnel Administrators (NASPA).

The award is presented in recognition of an individual’s outstanding contributions to the profession over an extended period of time. Criteria for the award include Leadership and Service to NASPA at the regional or national level, Contribution above and beyond normal service required by positions of leadership, and a minimum of 10 years in the college student personnel profession and as a NASPA member.

Lewis noted, "It has been my honor to serve both the Association and the Profession over the past 14 years. I am honored to be recognized in this way but the larger reward for me is the opportunity that I have on a daily basis to work with and impact the lives of the students for which I come in contact."

In addition to regional recognition that accompanies this award, the recipient is considered for the national NASPA Fred Turner Distinguished Service Award.
