Long-time college of business professor receives special award

Just in time for his retirement, professor of accounting and of hospitality Brad Roof was chosen to receive the JMU All Together One award. In a recent ceremony, Roof and four other honorees were celebrated for engaging and building community and inspiring others, as well as their caring attitude, dedication to learning and commitment to working together. 

Retired School of Accounting director Tim Louwers started the process by nominating Roof, also the Hantzmon Wiebel Faculty Scholar, for the recognition. The event was created in 2000 by members of the JMU Circle of Omicron Delta Kappa, the National Leadership Honor Society. Each spring, students, faculty and staff are invited to nominate members of the community who exemplify this special spirit of "all together one."
