Cash presented the Molly McBride Tutoring Excellence Award

Taylor Cash, Morehead senior, was presented with the Molly McBride Tutoring Excellence Award.

The award is given annually to a tutor who demonstrates a superior level of tutoring skills and caring for MSU students. It honors Molly McBride, a TLC tutor until she was killed in a May 2013 car accident.

“We are so blessed that the MSU Tutoring and Learning Center (TLC) is remembering and honoring our daughter in this way. She was passionate about helping students with their educational pursuits and honoring her in this way acknowledges that her passion and commitment didn't go unrecognized. We were, and continue to be, so very proud of our daughter,” said Jill McBride.

A neuroscience major, Cash will graduate in May.

 “Molly was an extraordinary person and a fantastic tutor,” said Alvin Madden-Grider, learning strategies coordinator. “She helped many MSU students with their studies, and she helped them stay in college and graduate. Taylor is an outstanding student and tutor and deserves to be presented with the award.”

The TLC tutors are undergraduates who help their fellow students through tutoring mathematics, business, sciences, writing, foreign languages and other subjects.
