KSC’s Associate Vice President for Finance Karen House and Finance and Budget Analyst Melissa Laughner recently won the 2011 Bradford K. Perry Award for their achievement developing a multi-scenario, multi-year financial planning model that has been essential for integrating Keene State’s strategic planning initiatives with financial projections. The model is an efficient alternative to buying an expensive, labor-intensive, commercial product. Karen and Melissa won the award for their “financial genius” as noted by the University System of New Hampshire (USNH) Treasurer and the Financial Policies and Planning Council. Just one more of the big ways we watch our pennies!

Great job Karen and Melissa!
