December employees of the month
Leah Luckeroth, Unclassified employee
Leah Luckeroth
Started at KU: 1991.
Current title: Student Health Services physician, Watkins Memorial Health Center.
What that means: In addition to providing general medical care to KU students, Luckeroth has special expertise in the area of tuberculosis testing and treatment and is closely involved in the care of international students.
Notable: Each semester Luckeroth coordinates a health orientation for incoming international students. One focus is tuberculosis testing, but the staff also ensures students have appropriate immunity to measles, mumps and rubella and that those living in university housing receive the required meningitis vaccination. Luckeroth involves all SHS departments to ensure the check-in process goes smoothly. As a result, the International Student Orientation team was named “Team of the Year” by SHS staff.
Annie Rose Rajaei, University Support Staff
Annie Rose Rajaei
Started at KU: 2004
Current title: Administrative asssociate senior, Parking and Transit.
What that means: Rajaei is responsible for accounts payable, accounts receivable, purchasing and travel. She is the visitor coordinator, which means she manages the bulk permits for events on campus and hooded meters for guests. She manages the payroll deductions process for all KU employees who choose this method for purchasing their parking permits, oversees the collection process on unpaid accounts and supervises all student assistants. She recently accepted the responsibility of supervising the department's full-time receptionist.
Quotable: Rajaei's supervisor describes her as “a blur of work,” someone who can be trusted with any assignment.
