Honorary Alumni Award

2021 Honoree:

Katie Bash

Katie Bash is attributed to leading Graceland to a successful recommendation from the Higher Learning Commission. For eight years Katie and her husband, Lee, have worked with Graceland committees to develop a model that is integrated, timing things to alleviate repetition and to align budgeting with strategic planning. Bash cultivated the work of the faculty and a task force into an equitable program-prioritization process that provides a numeric measure of effectiveness with direction of improvements.

Thanks to all of her hard work and dedication to Graceland, Katie Bash is now an official alumna of Graceland University!
