Educator Legacy Award

Catharine "C-Rad" Rademacher, an English, speech and theater teacher from Indiana, was nominated by colleagues, friends, family and current and former students.

“For students who needed a creative outlet or simply a ‘soft place to land,’ C-Rad’s door was always open. She created a sanctuary where you didn’t have to be perfect — you just had to be yourself. She didn’t just teach us how to act — she taught us how to be better human beings.”
