Patricia Angley
The Patricia Angley Memorial Scholarship in English was created to honor and preserve the memory of our valued friend and professional colleague, Dr. Patricia Angley. Angley was a Senior Lecturer who joined the department in 1998; she was active in teaching, administration, student advising, and union work at the university for the past 22 years. She always made herself available to students and was integral to countless successes by undergraduates. She was a relentless presence within the English department and continually brought moments of joy to her colleagues.
