Pat spent over 30 years at Franklin and contributed a great deal to the growth and success of the University during her tenure. As a professor emeritus, Pat leaves a strong legacy at Franklin.
Professor Emeritus Jane Sieberth, who worked with Pat throughout her career talked recently about that legacy.
“She was a teacher at heart and made every effort to motivate, support and help her students learn the content of whatever class she was teaching, while always making sure the academic standards of Franklin University were maintained. As a colleague she led by example with her hard work and dedication, spending countless hours devoted to enhancing the academic areas at Franklin. Pat was an exemplary colleague and a loyal friend. She was truly a wonderful person.”
The Franklin University family will miss Pat and will be forever grateful for her hard work and dedication not only to the University, but also to the thousands of students and alumni who were touched by her intelligence, humor and caring nature, in and out of the classroom.
