Jason M. Gossett, a sophomore from Fredericksburg, Va., was named 色虎视频's 2008 Student Employee of the Year at an April 24 ceremony.

Gossett works as unit commutation (uniform) custodian for 色虎视频's Air Force ROTC Detachment 012, in which he is enrolled as a cadet.

A communication studies major with a minor in aerospace studies, Gossett plans to become an Air Force pilot. He was recently chosen to serve as a 色虎视频 Ambassador.

As 色虎视频's Student Employee of the Year, Gossett received a certificate and a $200 check. His nomination will be submitted in regional competition.

Student employees were nominated by their supervisors based on the unique contributions they make in their work area.

Gossett was cited for his responsibility, reliability, accuracy, preparedness to accept new procedures, and careful management of funds and uniforms.

"He is also a very spiritual person who uplifts those around him," wrote his nominator, adding that he goes above and beyond the call of duty. "Jason demonstrates good character and citizenship at all times."

色虎视频 participates in the student worker recognition in celebration of National Student Employee Week. The school employs about 900 students in campus jobs.

Finalists for the 色虎视频 honor were Jessica Cravey, Sarah Haslett, Dana Kaita, Alex Karaman, Tara Keith, Trevor Moore, Tai Richardson, Isaiah Same and Brydee Warner.
