Sarah Butler is the Learning Analytics Specialist in the CTL, where she leads evaluation and assessment efforts for CTL programming. She also manages the CoursEval system and oversees the CTL website and newsletter, ensuring alignment across CTL initiatives to maintain a cohesive and effective online presence. Although she once imagined becoming a librarian, she found that her passion for documenting, organizing, and interpreting information makes assessment another natural path.
Previously, Sarah served as UMSL’s Testing Center Services Coordinator, where she restructured operations to meet accreditor standards, expanded on-campus credentialing options, integrated a comprehensive database system, and established processes that strengthened both service quality and staffing capacity. She is a recipient of the 2023 Chancellor’s Award for Staff Excellence as a Creator and has an M.Ed. in Adult and Higher Education and a B.A. in History, both from UMSL. Beyond her work, she is a DJ with UMSL Radio and enjoys going to concerts, collecting comics, and outdoor activities like hiking, camping, and biking.
