CAHSS Excellence Awards 2022

CAHSS Excellence Awards

Taking the time to reflect on our accomplishments and achievements is one of the most important highlights of the year and is an opportunity to formally set aside some time to recognize and celebrate our aspirations and accomplishments as educators and students. All of the students and faculty are very unique in their own way and truly represent the diversity amongst our multi-faceted disciplines within the programs, departments, college, and university.

They all have a passion for what they do, and their dedication to their field is not limited to the classroom but extends throughout the university and our local communities.  Our college is very proud of these students and faculty and their accomplishments, and we are thankful and appreciative of the selfless support that many have received from their family and friends.

 

Jeffers Chertok Memorial Scholarship

The Jeffers W. Chertok Memorial Scholarship was established in 2005 by Daniel & Margie Carper and the Chertok Family. Dean Jeffers Chertok held a 34-year career at Eastern Washington University. Dean Chertok’s legacy lives on through the students he taught, the faculty he mentored, and the quiet charm he brought to them all. He will always be remembered as a strong voice for Eastern, a statesman, and a scholar of quiet brilliance, beloved by students and admired by colleagues.
