An instructor of nursing, Cherie Mooy uses outside resources including current events, professional journals and pertinent research studies to supplement course topics, expand student awareness of issues and increase the value of evidence-based practice.

She creates a sense of community in the classroom, respects her students, encourages them, shares her thoughts and has fun.

A colleague confirms that Mooy “demonstrates her genuine love for nursing, and shows genuine affection and caring for her students. She is patient, professional and allows her students to explore nursing in a safe, caring environment.”

The Regents’ Medal for Excellence in Teaching is awarded by the Board of Regents as tribute to faculty members who exhibit an extraordinary level of subject mastery and scholarship, teaching effectiveness and creativity and personal values that benefit students.
