Associate Professor Janessa Graves has been named a recipient of the 2020 WSU President’s Award for Leadership-Faculty and Staff.

The President’s Awards, which have been granted since 1996, recognize top leaders at WSU.

“Recipients of this prestigious award demonstrate exceptional leadership and service to the university and the community as well as to those who support leadership development in WSU students,” according to the university.

The Faculty and Staff category recognizes “Candidates (who) challenge and work with students to support their development into active global citizens, and collaborate with others on campus or in the community to promote engagement.”

Dr. Graves is Director of the Office of Information Management and Associate Dean of Undergrad & Community Research at the College of Nursing. She has served a three-year appointment as a fellow in the WSU Honors College, an honor that recognized her significant contributions to the mission of that college. 

She and other award recipients will be honored in an online meeting of President Kirk Schulz and his leadership team on April 21.

Congratulations Janessa!
