Dr. Jill Kreutzer earned two degrees at Colorado State University (B.S., child development and family relationships, ’69; Ph.D., vocational education - career development and counseling, ’91) and served in the Department of Human Development and Family Studies from 1973-2000 as instructor, associate professor, key adviser, internship coordinator, and supervisor of the HDFS Peer Advisers. Throughout her career, Jill taught undergraduate and graduate courses in adolescent and young adult development, as well as those students in the undergrad professional sequence.
With a shared belief that international travel and study enriches the educational, professional, cultural, and personal lives of undergraduate students, Jill and her husband Leigh Towill have created the Kreutzer & Towill Scholarship for International Study in honor of their parents, all of whom valued and fostered learning through varied avenues and opportunities.
