It is with great pleasure that we present the Les Carlin Professional Development Award for 2026 to Emma Sturm, Admissions Advisor at Eastern Michigan University. In just her first year as a full-time professional, Emma has demonstrated remarkable dedication, attention to detail, and genuine care for her students, consistently going above and beyond to ensure their comfort and success. Her enthusiasm for engaging with the higher education community is evident in her pursuit of a master’s degree and her growing involvement in campus programs. Emma’s drive, ambition, and readiness to learn make her an ideal candidate for ACPA-MI membership and conference participation, and we look forward to seeing the positive impact she will make on our profession for years to come.
The award is named after Leslie “Les” O. Carlin (1916-2002), who made significant contributions to higher education through his long tenure at Central Michigan University (CMU). He served as a dedicated counselor in the CMU Counseling Center from 1948 to 1981, offering guidance and support to countless students. His expertise and leadership in the field of counseling were widely recognized, and upon retiring, he was honored with the title of professor emeritus.

It is an honor to recognize Dr. Leland Harper, Associate Professor of Race, Justice, and Equity Studies at Siena Heights University, as the recipient of the ACPA–Michigan Equity and Inclusion Award for 2026. Dr. Harper’s unwavering commitment, creativity, and innovative leadership have profoundly impacted students and colleagues alike, both locally and nationally. Through his development of the JEDI program and certificate, impactful grant work, and transformative teaching, Dr. Harper equips students to challenge systems of oppression and embrace inclusive leadership. His scholarly contributions, statewide initiatives, and campus service have shaped critical conversations around equity, inspired action, and fostered a culture of inclusion. Dr. Harper’s dedication to advancing justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion truly embodies the spirit of this award, and his work continues to leave a lasting legacy within higher education. Leland also serves on the ACPA-MI board as the current Social Justice and Inclusion Coordinator and is currently planning this year’s JEDI (Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion) Conference at Siena Heights University in May.
