\u201cGetting to know my students, getting to know where they come from and what they\u2019re doing now, seeing their progress over time and just watching them blossom into the incredible professionals that they become \u2014 I love it,\u201d says two-time Wilson College of Textiles graduate Sasha Ormond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ormond \u2014 whose long list of accomplishments includes a B.S. in chemistry, a B.S. in polymer and color chemistry<\/a> and a Ph.D. in fiber and polymer science<\/a> \u2014 discovered her love of teaching during her time at Wilson College. She has grown that love into a career as not only an associate professor of chemistry, but also as the department head of chemistry, physics and geoscience at Meredith College. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Ormond didn\u2019t start her academic career knowing she wanted to teach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discovering a love of teaching<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

During her time as an undergraduate student, Ormond worked as a chemistry intern at Inspire Pharmaceuticals, performing organic synthesis in an effort to treat glaucoma. It was her interest in this work that propelled her to Professor Emeritus Harold Freeman\u2019s<\/a> lab for her graduate program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI really thought, \u2018I\u2019m going to go to grad school, I\u2019m going to get my Ph.D. and I\u2019m going to go back out into the industry and do more research,\u2019\u201d Ormond says. \u201cThen going through grad school, tutoring just fell into my lap and when I had to tutor that is what I looked forward to all day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Ormond, tutoring built on a history of sharing her passions and knowledge with her peers. As an undergraduate student she was a member of Phi Beta Kappa Honor Society, the University Scholars Program, the American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists and president of Sigma Tau Sigma. She also served as the secretary of Phi Psi National Textile Fraternity with her now-husband Assistant Professor of Textile Engineering Bryan Ormond<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Our 3-year old has Down syndrome and changes the perspective of our everyday lives for the better,” she says. “I’m not just a professional, and my personal life directly affects my professional life. Having a child with a disability makes me a better professor and helps me understand students on a more personal level.”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

According to Ormond, it was this strong sense of community and support she found at the college that has propelled her to where she is today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI had such an amazing experience with the faculty, the students, the opportunities for networking and all the organizations I was a part of,\u201d Ormond says. \u201cThey were so inviting and provided so much support for students.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This support from her peers at the college led Ormond to both of her first teaching positions as adjunct faculty at Johnston Community College and Meredith College, where she was able to take her initial steps in sharing her love of textiles with a whole new generation of students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI get to bring my textile background to my teaching,\u201d Ormond explains. \u201cThe big thing about textiles is that it\u2019s applied. It\u2019s not just generalized information, it’s both the foundations and the applications. I love it, and I think it has really helped me in my teaching role because I\u2019m more versatile than if I was just a chemistry major.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership in and out of the classroom<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For Ormond, this versatility is an important part of her new role as a department head, where she expands on her responsibilities as a professor and tackles new challenges everyday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a mixture of responsibilities and every day looks different from a previous one,\u201d she says. \u201cBut you know I don\u2019t do it by myself. It\u2019s a lot of communicating with the rest of the department and communicating with the dean and other department heads.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had such an amazing experience with the faculty, the students, the opportunities for networking and all the organizations I was a part of.<\/p><\/div><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Along with teaching, advising students and holding office hours, Ormond also serves on the tenure and promotion committee, manages scheduling for the department, and mentors students working on honors theses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through the growth of her career and the expansion of her responsibilities one thing has remained consistent \u2014 her love of teaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ormond hopes others can find fulfilling careers the way she has. Her advice for students is to explore all the college has to offer beyond academics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGet out of your research lab,” she says. \u201cJoin a professional development program, network with people, go to conferences. There\u2019s so much out there and you only know what you\u2019re exposed to.
