Kudos to Judy Druskovich: Judy acts as the student adviser for the GLMA contingent of the nationwide Women on the Water group. GLMA hosted the very first WOW conference several years ago and it came full circle back to GLMA this year (each year a different Maritime Academy hosts). This (student) maritime professional development conference was held in the Hagerty Center October 26-28, 2017. Judy almost single handedly liaised with industry, other Academies, Federal agencies and cadets to make this conference the success that it was. She obtained sponsorship for various aspects of the conference; scheduled panel speakers for sessions, keynote and guest speakers; obtained video addresses from both Senator Debbie Stabenow and the Maritime Administrator RADM Mark Buzby; arranged networking events; scheduled cadet watchkeeping duties etc. Some assistance was provided by WOW group members at GLMA (again, cadet scheduling by Judy) and the NMC Foundation for registration purposes, but Judy took this large project on with dedication, professionalism and always a sunny disposition. This project was undertaken in addition to her full time Admissions role. Kudos Judy!
