"Be patient with yourself, and allow time to explo "Be patient with yourself, and allow time to explore the many options life has to offer. Life is a marathon, not a sprint. It is easy to be distracted by the future you are working toward, but don't forget to appreciate the moments you are experiencing now." - Stephanie Howard, director of the Mercer Innovation Center.

The second staff member featured in our new "Worke The second staff member featured in our new "Worker Bears" series is Assistant Registrar @AprilCantrell, who has worked at Mercer for 14 years. . WHAT SHE DOES: “I work in cooperation with other administrative office staff such as Financial Planning and Bursar to ensure that all Mercer students, at all campus locations, are reported for their enrollment and degrees accurately. I am part of a team of staff who processes and evaluates withdrawal documentation dates and accuracy. In addition, I also maintain all the records for employee FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act) agreements at Mercer.” . WHAT SHE LOVES MOST ABOUT HER WORK: “The people here are like family and genuinely care for each other and the students attending here. All of our offices offer a small part of a student’s educational experience. Our students’ ideas represent future discoveries in areas of impact and change throughout the world. If I can play even a small part in that progression of a student’s experience, I am honored. I love watching a student embrace opportunities here, not only through academics, but also through organizations and activities throughout Mercer that they will never forget. To watch a student begin as a freshman and progress through their educational career to graduate successfully is one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever been a part of.”

Yvette Miller is a trailblazer. The Double Bear ha Yvette Miller is a trailblazer. The Double Bear has been breaking down barriers for minorities and women in the legal profession ever since she graduated from @mercerlawschool in 1980. . Miller currently is a presiding judge of the Georgia Court of Appeals. Her appointment in 1999 made her the first Black woman to serve on the court, and she later became the first Black woman to serve as the court’s chief judge. . In addition, Miller was among the first women to serve as assistant district attorney in Fulton County and one of the first Black women to practice law throughout the Brunswick Judicial Circuit. She also was the first woman, first Black individual and youngest person to serve as the director/judge of the Appellate Division on the Georgia Board of Worker’s Compensation. . Miller, whom President William D. Underwood called “one of Mercer’s most accomplished graduates,” has received many accolades for her service and contributions to the community. She continues to give back, recently establishing an endowed scholarship for Mercer law students to promote diversity and inclusion in the legal profession. . #MercerMade is a series in which we feature notable people, businesses, products and inventions connected to Mercer University.
