2021 COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES HONORS RECIPIENT

Outstanding Exercise Science Student- Health and Fitness Track: Haley Daniels

Haley Daniels has always been interested in how the body works and was eager to learn how exercise and a healthy lifestyle could influence overall health. So, in the spring of 2018 she transferred to UIS to finish her education in Exercise Science. Haley completed an internship with Rochester High School as she worked with the Athletic Director and learned about how sports influence young athletes. That work inspired her to pursue a Master’s Degree in Athletic Training in the near future. Throughout her time at UIS she was on the Dean’s List each semester, and graduated Summa Cum Laude in December 2020.  Haley stated that, “UIS was a wonderful place to finish my degree and I’m so happy for the friendships I developed with classmates and staff during my time there.”
