"During the current pandemic, Rose has been involved with several committees and strives to keep NKU safe. She works tirelessly every day and even the weekends to make sure that those who have COVID or are exposed to COVID has the latest updated information, testing and care. NKU's great response to the pandemic has been her focus and concerns, and it would not have been as successful without her knowledge and commitment to NKU."
