Graduating seniors from the Class of 2020 were asked to write a letter to the Oglethorpe professor who impacted them the most. Watch as those professors read letters from their students and share a moment together.<\/p>\n
Ferrin Tinter ’20<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>graduated from Oglethorpe with a degree in Communication Studies.<\/a> She transferred to Oglethorpe her sophomore year and immediately became involved on campus. Tinter was secretary of Students Today Alumni Tomorrow (STAT)<\/a>, served as an Orientation Leader for three years before serving on the Orientation Leader Council and served as an Admission Ambassador. She was also a Pegasus intern<\/a> in the University Communications office. She currently interns with Susan G. Komen Atlanta<\/a> as an Event Planning Intern.<\/p>\n Tinter fondly remembers spending a lot of time in the office of her favorite professor, Dr. Seema Shrikhande,<\/strong> professor of communication studies. She took many classes with Dr. Shrikhande and was her advisee, however, Tinter recalls how she could talk to her about anything.<\/p>\n “Not only would she entertain me and all my problems, but would laugh at all my jokes, roll her eyes and say a jokingly exasperated, ‘Oh, Ferrin,’ and offer me candy.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":62,"featured_media":71778,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"categories":[4554,4552],"tags":[],"news_category":[],"class_list":["post-71777","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-academics","category-featured"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
