CWU Professor Named Advisor Of The YearJune 23, 2008 ELLENSBURG, Wash. -- Central Washington University professor of human resource management Dr. Jim Nimnicht is the 2008 Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) Foundation Advisor of the Year. Nimnicht received recognition for the prestigious honor at SHRM's 60th Annual Conference and Exposition in Chicago June 21, 2008. As winner of the national award, he received a $1,000 educational stipend. Each year students from SHRM chapters worldwide nominate their advisors for the esteemed award. Advisors from all SHRM chapters, which total about 450, are eligible for the competition. The award recognizes the outstanding service and leadership provided to students by their advisor. Professor Nimnicht is the first two-time winner of the award. His first SHRM Foundation Advisor of the Year honor was in 2002. "To be honored by my students means everything to me. They are the ones I serve and desire to help grow in their lives, as well as their careers," explains Nimnicht. "Then, when it goes to the national level, clearly this exceeds any thoughts and expectations any advisor could realistically hold." More than 20,000 human resources professionals were expected to participate in this year's conference.
