It takes teamwork to prepare good leaders. At Washington State University, one team member is the Spokane Teachers Credit Union, which provides scholarships for educators in our principal and school superintendent certification programs. So the folks at STCU definitely have earned the right to wave (or hold) the Cougar flag. Why, they’re even featuring WSU College of Education alumna Angela Brown (’94) on their website.

On Monday, College of Education Dean A.G. Rud (center back of this picture) joined Clinical Associate Professor Joan Kingrey (far right) and Spokane Academic Director Gail Furman at a luncheon that brought STCU officials and scholarship recipients together. Credit Union attendees included CEO Tom Johnson (in the first row, far left); Traci McGlathery, community relations manager; Jamie Dedmon, community development officer, and Brad Hunter, vice president of marketing.

The scholarship recipients on hand were Ken Russell, Jerry Pugh, Kevin Peterson, Sean Dotson, Steve Barnes, Jared Hoadly, Carole Meyer and Julia Lockwood.
