OUTSTANDING STUDENT FOR NOVEMBER 2009  

Eivet Rouelnejad has been chosen as the November Outstanding Student for the Month of November at Merced College.  She was born and raised in Iran, and moved to Turlock almost 10 years ago.  Eivet enjoys spending time with family, who has been very supportive throughout the years.  In her free time she enjoys playing sports and watching movies with family and friends.

Merced College Professor Judy Rose had multiple reasons for nominating Eivet for Student of the Month.  "To begin with," said Rose, "Eivet has completed 62.5 units with a 4.00 G.P.A.  Since English is not her first language, she spends whatever time she must to earn the grades she earns."  Rouelnejad is always willing to share her understanding of topics with her classmates.  "She is self-motivated, confident, responsible, and very professional," adds Rose.
 

Rouelnejad was also recognized by the California Society of Radiologic Technologists at their last year's annual Conference.  She was the recipient of the Anna Ames Clinical Excellence Award.  The criteria for selection includes: clinical excellence, professionalism, and nurturing and caring.  She was selected because she demonstrates a high potential for success in the radiologic technology profession and most closely follows the professional excellence emulated by Ms. Ames. 

Rouelnejad's GPA is 4.0 and she plans to continue her education in the fields of Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Sonography.  She has received special recognition from the Merced College Board of Trustees for being the Student of the Month.  The Administration and Faculty congratulate Rouelnejad for all her hard work.
