Roseanne August, Academic Coordinator 1 in the School of Mechanical and Materials Engineering, is the February 2018 Crimson Spirit Award recipient.
Roseanne received ringing praise from four nominators! When she started at WSU during a time of transition, she was the only advisor for more than 1,000 undergraduates. “With no one to give her historical contexts,” Roseanne “single handedly took over the advising load,” oriented the two advisors hired after her, and “rebuilt trust and confidence in the advising experience.”
As one nominator comments, “the students are having such a great experience with her as an advisor, they are telling their friends, which is contributing to the steady growth of our programs.”
Roseanne August is honored for exceeding expectations, providing superior quality service, and expressing genuine interest in each student she advises.
