Dresher-native and Upper Dublin High School alumnus Tyler Pohl, a junior political science and economics major at Michigan State University, was recently awarded the 2025 Dean’s Student Advisory Council Outstanding Student Leadership Award for his efforts to improve relations between Jewish and Arab students at the university.

From the university’s website:

Pohl, who is vice president of external affairs for the MSU Jewish Student Union, submitted an essay on the efforts he has made to improve relationships between Jewish and Arab students at MSU.  

“With the current events in the Middle East and the ongoing war, this endeavor has been extremely important to my personal agenda for a more inclusive Spartan community,” he wrote in his essay.  

Pohl has hosted joint events for the JSU and the Muslim Students Association and arranged coffee meetings with the Arab Cultural Society (ACS) and the JSU executive boards.
