Meet your advisor

From time-to-time, I thought it would be nice to include profiles of our academic advisors in the College. They work tirelessly to ensure that you have every opportunity for success as you work toward earning your degree.

Here is Kacee Robertson.

Kacee would love for life to be like a musical. A student needs something extra? Time or credits perhaps? In Kacee’s world, people randomly break out into song to express their point of view, plead their case or just simply for the fun of it.

In reality, Kacee helps College of Liberal Studies students the more predictable way in achieving their goal of earning a bachelor’s degree. Online and on the phone, she has been guiding CLS students from her third floor McCarter Hall office for more than a year-and-half. She provides the graduation plans, instructions and information they need to be successful.

A 2004 graduate of the University of Oklahoma, Kacee herself did not take the traditional same-school, four-year route to earn her bachelor’s degree. Kacee first attended Carl Albert State College (CASC) in her far east Oklahoma hometown of Poteau where she earned an associate’s degree in English. Then, she headed to Northeastern State College in Tahlequah before coming to OU to study journalism and public relations.

Kacee has experience working with Upward Bound, the federally funded program for first generation high school students who plan to go to college. She also worked as an ACT residual supervisor, general education academic advisor and was an adjunct instructor of Composition I and Business Communications at her alma mater, CASC.

After three years in Poteau, Kacee moved back to Norman in September 2008. In December of that year, she completed a Master of Arts in Leadership Education.
She loves live music, no matter what kind and attends nearly 30 concerts a year to hear it. Among her favorites – Miranda Lambert, Bonnie Raitt, Ben Folds, and old school country guys like Roger Miller.

Kacee played percussion in her high school marching band and more recently decided to take up a string instrument. She chose to learn to play the banjo because really, what’s cooler than a banjo?

Along with music and musicals, she enjoys independent films, comedies and foreign movies. The best part of her day is when she is greeted by Bark Robertson, her Corgi.
