Dr. Shana Redd

OMAHA – Recently, the student organization Black Excellence awarded Dr. Shana Redd, Assistant Professor of Marketing & Entrepreneurship at CBA, their Black Faculty of the Year Award.

The winner is selected by the group by reviewing faculty members who have helped them both inside and outside the classroom. Johnnah Bailey, President of Black Excellence says, Dr. Redd spoke at an event for the group about knowing your brand. “Because of that, I knew I had to take one of her courses this fall. She just made a big impression on me, and the rest of the members just through that one experience.”

“Countless studies demonstrate the profound impact of belonging in a college setting. A genuine sense of belonging fosters elevated learning, high academic achievement, and a strong commitment to completing academic programs. This sense of belonging is not limited to the student experience. I am delighted to belong to the Black Excellence community at UNO, and I look forward to witnessing our students reach their professional and personal goals and inspire others to do the same,” Dr. Redd said.

Black Excellence was formed to serve as a resource for Black students across the UNO campus. They want to celebrate Black students, faculty, and staff members’ accomplishments and achievements. They have several events throughout the academic year including their Black & Bougie Gala in the spring, a welcome back BBQ in the fall, held with other Black Student Unions at college campuses across the metro, events during Black History Month, and a talent show, to name a few.
