1xbet sports betting LEADERSHIP EXPERT RECEIVES AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE FROM K-STATE COLLEGE OF EDUCATION

MANHATTAN -- A longtime Kansas State University faculty member is the recipient of the 2010 Dan and Cheryl Yunk Excellence in 1xbet sports betting Administration Award from the K-State College of Education.

G. Kent Stewart, professor emeritus of 1xbet sports betting leadership, Manhattan, is receiving the award created to honor individuals who have demonstrated exemplary leadership in providing or promoting administration of schools, from preschool to grade 12, in Kansas. It is named in honor of the Yunks, longtime Manhattan educators, for their exemplary careers as teachers and administrators.

Stewart began his career as a middle 1xbet sports betting and high 1xbet sports betting teacher in Illinois and Indiana. After receiving his doctorate from Indiana University, he served as director of 1xbet sports betting facility planning for the Delaware Department of Education, and later as director of 1xbet sports betting facilities for Montgomery County, Md.

Stewart joined K-State in 1973 as a professor of educational administration, serving later as the director of extended services and as chair of the department. He taught graduate course work in 1xbet sports betting facilities planning and 1xbet sports betting -community relations for 32 years, and successfully chaired the academic programs and research of nearly 70 doctoral awardees.

He is the author of more than 90 professional articles and books. He has chaired committees to select nearly 140 1xbet sports betting superintendents in Kansas, and provided consulting services on facilities evaluation and planning for more than 150 1xbet sports betting districts. Stewart also is a popular commencement speaker, addressing the graduating classes at more than 120 high schools throughout the state.

"Although Kent retired in 2005, he remains the face of K-State's College of Education to generations of 1xbet sports betting administrators across the entire state of Kansas," said Mike Holen, dean of the college of education.
