If it’s May, then it’s commencement season for those about to graduate college. And for students of the UW-Green Bay-Sheboygan campus, the celebration will be on Saturday during two sessions at the Green Bay Kress Events Center. All four UWGB campuses – Green Bay, Marinette, Manitowoc and Sheboygan – will be represented with over 1,000 students and their families in attendance.
One of the day’s featured speakers will be student Kelsi Engelhardt of Sheboygan. Engelhardt, a Psychology major, was selected as class speaker according to professor and Psychology Chair Georjeana Wilson-Doenges, for her “clear passion for serving as an advocate for victims of sexual assault and domestic abuse at Safe Harbor in Sheboygan.”
Englehardt suffered a sexual assault in high school, and it was an advocate from Safe Harbor who supported her from a hospital visit to the healing process. She is now a full-time employee of the organization.
