Dr G Taught Me-Dr. G Earns the Faculty of the Year Award

This one is special. 💫I was honored with the Faculty of the Year Award for the Dept of Kinesiology Health Promotion— and the person who introduced me on stage was none other than one of my fabulous students, Tatiana.Tatiana’s words weren’t just an introduction… they were testimony. 🖤 She spoke about the impact of my teaching, my mentorship, and the way SportsCrit™ has shaped her journey as a scholar and future changemaker.To have my student — a brilliant voice for equity and inclusion in Physical Education — stand beside me in that moment was the *real award.*Because at the end of the day:📚 It’s not just about lectures or grades.🔥 It’s about legacy.🌱 It’s about planting seeds of justice and watching them grow.This is a reminder: when we pour love, rigor, and liberation into our students, they reflect it back in ways that transform us too.Thank you, Tatiana, for your words, your leadership, and for walking this path with me. 💪🏾#SportsCrit #DrGTaughtMe #FacultyOfTheYear #LegacyInMotion #DisruptReframeRewriteTheGame
