In the pocket of central Washington, lies the small farming community of Mattawa, population: 4,437. Most residents of the predominantly Latino town work in the acres of surrounding orchards, picking fruit that end up in supermarkets halfway around the world. This is where 26-year-old Osmark Jauregui, part of WSU’s PharmD inaugural Yakima class, found his calling as a pharmacist.
Anne Kim, from the College of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences’ Yakima extension, and Connie Remsberg, from Spokane, have been named new members of the President’s Teaching Academy, an organization dedicated to teaching excellence at Washington State University.
In a year unlike any other, graduates found themselves finishing their time at WSU in ways they never could have imagined. To celebrate virtually with our students, Governor Jay Inslee, Macklemore and a few other celebrities stepped in to lift their spirits with virtual well wishes.
The hard work of students, faculty, and staff are essential to the success of any college and help us thrive in an ever-changing health care landscape. As such, every year the college takes a moment to recognize just a few of these students, faculty, and staff who demonstrate excellence in all that they do.
