Kelly Carroll Rhodes, ’89, received
the 2004 Marshall B. Hulbert Young Alumni Service Award, presented to alumni of
15 years or less who have provided significant service to Lawrence.
Since graduating from Lawrence 15 years ago as a class officer, Kelly Carroll Rhodes has helped in almost every imaginable way to support the greater Lawrence community. She has been a reliable and articulate Class Secretary for the Class of 1989 for 11 years; has served on all three reunion steering committees, including the current 15th Reunion; and has volunteered as a career contact and an admissions volunteer, as well as organizing alumni events in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. The most recent event in which she was involved helped young alumni network with established alumni in a variety of career fields, but she also has helped with many regional send-off picnics for new and returning students. In 2003 she completed a four-year term on the Alumni Association Board of Directors, during which she was a hard-working member of the Student Relations Committee and later took on leadership of the Careers Committee, which included serving on the Executive Committee.
