Mrs. Rossie Lindsey is a 1963 graduate of the School of Home Economics with a major in Home Economics Education. She has been an ardent supporter of nutrition education in the community and a generous supporter of students in the Department of Nutrition for many years.

Her support of our nutrition education initiatives has enabled our students to bring programs and displays to churches, community farmers’ markets, health fairs, schools, and other community venues. She constantly steps up to the challenge of supporting not only the Department of Nutrition, but also the dean’s and university’s initiatives.

She, along with her husband Cleaton, were the public face of UNCG Development for many years, visiting donors and potential donors in person; they were very much credited with much of the success of the UNCG Student First campaign. However, most of Mrs. Lindsey’s support has been behind the scenes giving both her time and talent quietly and tirelessly without the desire for recognition.
