Alan R. Wilhelm
Department of Biological Sciences
1991
"As my
graduate student advisor, Dr. Wilhelm provided the necessary
direction and advice on scientific matters, as would any advisor,
however, unlike other advisors I have had during my academic career,
he was equally concerned with my mental outlook and attitude. To this
end, he always made himself available to all his students for
counseling about personal growth as well as academic progress. This
willingness to meet with students always extended well beyond his
regular office hours and included evenings and week-ends."
-- Paul J. Saxon,
Ph.D.
Dept. of Pathology
Stanford University School of Medicine
"I
first met Dr. Wilhelm at a Career Day he organized. . . My interest
in Biology was sparked and I have lived in Holt Hall ever since.
During my climb through the requirements for the major, Dr. Wilhelm
has helped me explore the various options available to a Biology
major and together we have fine tuned my interests, including a
career goal.
He has
always given me accurate information on entrance requirements to
professional schools and passed on advice about the various
application processes. Through him I was able to see catalogues and
old applications to several of the places I wish to attend. Dr.
Wilhelm is also 'on top of' the CSUC graduation requirements and has
been an excellent watchdog each semester to ensure I do not waste my
time on unnecessary courses. . . .
He goes
above and beyond the job description in reaching out to the student
body. His style of advising is all encompassing, not only is he on
top of the nuts and bolts of the job but he organizes information
seminars such as the Career Day I attended. He also maintains a
bulletin board of current information on jobs, internships, graduate
schools and even stress relief seminars for our tired minds. He looks
at and advises the WHOLE student, not just the scholary aspects."
