In his time at WSU, Dr. Dickey has supported students who have garnered accolades in local, state, regional, national, and international competitions. Others have gone on to pursue graduate degrees and public school teaching positions in the Northwest. Aside from teaching tuba and euphonium, Dr. Dickey teaches a popular UCORE arts class covering film music. Dr. Dickey’s other university service roles include positions with the WSU Teaching Academy, the Honors College, and the President’s Commission on Gender Identity/Expression and Sexual Orientation.

Dr. Dickey proudly accepts this award on behalf of all his students.
