26 of February 2010
She made news as one of five African-American women to simultaneously join Wichita State University’s faculty and professional staff in 1997, at a time when the Kansas Board of Regents made hiring minorities a priority.
Now, Rhonda Lewis-Moss holds another distinction as one of very few African-American women to achieve the rank of full professor at the university, according to Gary L. Miller, WSU’s provost and vice president for academic affairs and research.
“Dr. Lewis-Moss is an outstanding scholar, teacher and colleague who makes extraordinary contributions to the university every day,” Miller said in a statement.
Lewis-Moss, previously an associate professor of psychology, describes herself as an HIV/AIDS researcher, public health researcher and community psychologist.
“She is only the second African-American woman to achieve the rank of full professor at Wichita State,” Miller said.
