Wellmeyer named Distinguished Accountant
Connie S. Wellmeyer,
assistant general manager for corporate services and public affairs at
Toyota Motor Manufacturing Indiana in Princeton, Indiana, has been named
University of Southern Indiana Distinguished Accountant for 2008.
The Distinguished Accountant award recognizes professional achievement,
service to the region and/or the University, and service to the
accounting profession. It is presented by the USI College of Business
accounting program and the Accounting Circle, an advisory group.
Wellmeyer began her career in accounting at George S. Olive (now BKD,
LLP) in Evansville and later was associated with American General
Finance and Tri-state Medical Management.
Volunteering at USI has been a longtime priority for Wellmeyer. She
served on the Alumni Council from 1992-94 and on the Varsity Club Board
of Directors from 1992-95. She has served as an alumni career counselor
and was a volunteer in Campaign USI, the University’s first
capital campaign. She is a member of the Regional Advisory Committee for
the Center for Applied Research, an outreach of the University’s Office
of Extended Services.
A member of the Accounting Circle since 2003, she served as president in
2006-07.
On receiving the award, Wellmeyer said, “USI and the Accounting Circle
have been organizations that are near and dear to my heart. Volunteering
has never been a ‘job’ at any time. I look forward to future ways to be
involved.”
Wellmeyer also serves on the board of the Gibson County Economic
Development Corporation, the steering committee of the Indiana Business
Diversity Council, and the advisory council of The Women’s Hospital.
She earned a bachelor’s degree in accounting in 1984 at USI and a
master’s degree in business administration in 1997 at Ball State
University.
The award was announced in November at the Accounting Extravaganza, an
annual event for accounting students, faculty, and the Accounting
Circle.
