Today's Student Laureate Spotlight features Madison Psinas from Judson University. Psinas, a May '22 graduate with a degree in Architecture, is currently serving as an Architectural Designer for the Farnsworth Group.

During her time at Judson, Psinas's service activities include volunteering at her local pregnancy crisis center, the Hope Chest Resale Store - Elgin (a community thrift shop whose proceeds go to helping out the homeless and needy), and working at multiple American Red Cross blood drives. As a freshman, Psinas was selected as one of Judson’s Roeser Scholars which is given to students based on academic merit and leadership qualities.

In her Lincoln Legacy statement, Psinas writes:
"Lincoln's commitment to a vision of a just country that tackles inequities in society together is a model for us to build an even better civilization than the one we have inherited. When we seek the truth, when we choose to care for our neighbor, and when we humbly maintain and act on honorable beliefs, we are building a better community for ourselves and for those to come."

The Lincoln Academy of Illinois is with Knox College.

2 weeks ago

Please help us congratulate today's Student Laureate Spotlight, Rebecca Gadiel of Knox College. Gadiel graduated in May with a major in Psychology and minors in Social Service and Philosophy.

During her time at Knox, Gadiel served as a Dare to Care Peer Educator for three years. Through her advocacy as a peer educator, Rebecca hoped to reduce some of the stigma that is attached to seeking mental health care. As a future clinical psychologist, Becca hopes that all in need will feel more comfortable getting help and realize the importance of taking care of one’s mental health.

Gadiel currently serves as a Community Outreach intern for CASA of West Central Illinois.

In her Lincoln Legacy statement, Gadiel wrote:
"In thinking about the legacy of Abraham Lincoln, what resonates most with me is Lincoln’s unwavering belief in the possibility of a better world, and his steadfast commitment to helping bring about that change. With as much progress that has been made since Lincoln gave his Gettysburg Address, we still have a ways to go in our quest for a more equitable, just, and kind world. I feel fortunate to have been raised with these values in mind, and privileged to have spent the duration of my college experience in an institution committed to these ideals. I look forward to continuing to work towards a better world as I pursue a career in social work, with the goal of ensuring every individual has the resources and support they need to live healthy, secure, and fulfilling lives."

Earlier this month, The New Yorker did a feature on '21 Lincoln Laureate inductee Mavis Staples. The piece covers what Staples is currently up to as well as dives into her past - telling stories about her family, her relationship with Aretha Franklin, and the terrifying experience of touring in the Jim Crow South.

"Mavis Staples has no patience for segregation, in politics or in music. She is at once sure-minded about the essential place of Black composers and performers in American music and open to singing with anyone who can keep up."
