“Her Stories Live On”: Marijean Levering
Utica alumni reflect on the professors who made a lasting impact.
Every professor I have ever had or interacted with has shaped me and how I hold myself. They are all inspiring and compassionate, but the one professor who made my Utica experience unforgettable and full of magic was Professor Marijean Levering. I was part of the theatre performances, and Professor Levering could always make you smile and laugh with her unique quips. She made class fun and engaging because you never knew what she would do or say next. Outside of the classroom, she was always welcoming, warm, and was always finding time to help students who needed her. She gave advice through stories. When I got my first teaching job and was waiting for my apartment to be ready, she opened her doors to me and let me stay with her when I started work in the Utica district. She was such a wonderful person and had a heart of gold. I miss her so much, but her stories and advice live on. I’ll never forget her or her kindness.
