Although I’ve left higher education to work in the Government, I regularly apply Tracy’s teaching to my life and work. He remains a mentor of mine 20 years after having been one of his students. His contributions to the field of higher education will continue long after he retires. He is extraordinarily worthy of this recognition.

Words cannot adequately express my appreciation for Dr. Tracy Davis. Role Model, Mentor, Confidant, Brother, Collaborator and Ally extraordinaire, Friend and Social Justice Advocate, all come short in expressing my understanding and appreciation of and for him. Dr. Tracy Davis is a brilliant educator, supportive scholar, and researcher who more than exemplifies the values worthy of the ACPA Lifetime Achievement Award.

Dr.Davis has always tried to gain a more comprehensive perspective of the world in the name of education. His work does not go unnoticed and he has changed the lives of many students and future educators.

As a Chair and more recently working with Tracy through the Dean's Office, I have gained a new appreciation for Tracy, his work and his efforts in shaping our students. Listening to him has challenged my thinking and led to opportunities of personal growth. So for that I thank him. He is very deserving of this Lifetime Achievement Award!
