2014 PRECEPTORS OF THE YEAR
Dear Preceptors,
I wanted to let you know that my
last day at UT will be November
30th. I am taking the next big step
forward to RETIREMENT and am
looking forward to it with great
anticipation.
Thank you all for being such a joy
to work with over the past 20
years. It has been an amazing
experience and I have loved
working with each one of you so
much.
I have felt such a personal bond
between us and it will be a big
adjustment to lose that contact with
you. I will truly miss you.
Thank you for the many
outstanding rotation opportunities
that you have so willingly provided
to our students. Thank you for your
involvement in various University
committees all with the goal of
enhancing our pharmacy program
at UT.
Wishing you the very best!
Kathy Zember
2014 IPPE Preceptor of the Year
Najwa Kassem, R.Ph. Pharmacy Owner/Manager Westgate
Family Pharmacy
Najwa loves her job and
loves her customers. She has
been precepting our
University of Toledo IPPE
and APPE students since
2001. Originally from
Lebanon, Najwa graduated
with her pharmacy degree
and entered into a world that
was dominated by only men. She later opened her own pharmacy in
Lebanon and was very successful.
In 1995 she moved to Toledo Ohio and began working as a manager
with the Rite Aid Corporation. Najwa’s passion was to be an
independent pharmacist and make a difference. In October 2012, she
opened Westgate Family Pharmacy on Central Avenue in Toledo. Here
she has the time and freedom to connect with her customers on a one-on-
one basis. Her pharmacy offers free delivery, immunizations, Blister
Packaging and MTM.

career as a pharmacy dean as well as his ongoing
service to the pharmacy and African American
communities, Dr. Early lives his commitment to
diversity and student success. His story, which
carried him from humble beginnings in a small
Georgia town to national leadership positions in
pharmacy organizations, is indeed worthy of
recognition.
“I am honored to receive this recognition,” Dr.
Early said. Most important to my personal legacy
are student-centeredness, global outreach and
diversity, all of which are cornerstones of our
college’s mission and goals.”
Dr. Early will be recognized alongside three other
honorees at a gala celebration on October 3-4,
2014.
Author and entrepreneur Steve
Saint once said, “Your story is
the greatest legacy that you
will leave to your friends. It's
the longest-lasting legacy you
will leave to your heirs.”
In this spirit, Dean Early adds
his story to that of the African
American Legacy Project, a local nonprofit that is
dedicated to “documenting and preserving the
history of Northwest Ohio’s African American
communities and their impact and influence upon
Toledo and the greater world community”.
This fall, the AALP will honor Dr. Early with its
Legend Award, recognizing his achievements in
leadership, service and academia as part of
Toledo’s history. Nominated for his decades-long
