Texas A&M University–Central Texas prides itself in being the only upper-level university in the state, offering high quality, affordable, and innovative higher education programs. Staff members play in integral role facilitating the university mission.
Twice a year the TORCH award is presented to staff who are nominated by their peers for demonstrating Teamwork, Outstanding Service, Responsibility, Creativity, and Honor. This year’s recipient is Assistant Director of Counseling and Psychology LaToscha Sherman. Sherman received a TORCH award plaque, along with a $500 cash award.
Some would say this is a full circle moment for Sherman. She graduated with her Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2019 from A&M-Central Texas.
“This award means so much! To be recognized for my contributions to the University that helped establish and build a career that I love is priceless. I am proud to be able to contribute to the present student body and that pride brings me satisfaction and pushes me to continue working towards greater goals,” Sherman said.
Admissions counselor Christina Acevedo and Associate Director of Instructional Technology Service Sara Dierk were also nominated. Runner-up nominees are recognized with a TORCH award card and pin.
