there’s so many wonderful UH employees that
we’ve decided to highlight two of them this
month.
Please continue to nominate your outstanding

Who:
Elizabeth Bullock
Academic Advisor 3
Years of UH Service:
9 Years
Department:
Bauer College of Business
Accountancy & Taxation
How to Contact Me:
ebullock@uh.edu or 3.5936
Where to Find Me:
275 Melcher Hall
When to Call Me:
I am the graduate advisor for the
Masters of Science in Accountancy
Program. I also manage the
Accountancy & Taxation Professional
Program.
Helpful Hint:
Because we’re in a profession that
does a lot of interacting, giving,
and supporting, advisors need to be
reenergized. We need to look for
those things for ourselves, so that
we can keep doing what we need to
do. I recommend joining an advising
organization such as NACADA and
networking with colleagues within
the advising community as sources of
support. We should also care for
ourselves and take time off.
What I Like Best About My Job:
I enjoy being able to assist people
with achieving their educational and
professional dreams.
What Elizabeth’s Colleagues Say:
Troy Hopkins says “Elizabeth is the
advisor for the Masters in
Accounting Program which is a fast
paced master’s program with very
demanding students. She does a great
job of helping her students and also
coordinates the daily operations of
the Professional Accounting Programs
office. She is a great asset to the
department and the Bauer College of
Business and should be recognized.”
