BoNhia Lee, University Communications
BoNhia did an excellent job covering my work while I was out on maternity leave. This included managing my student assistants, supporting major initiatives like Day of Giving and maintaining our social media channels which is a 24/7 job. In general, Bo is our cross-trained hero, regularly backing up and supporting every member of our team. We're so fortunate to have not only such an excellent team player but a highly-skilled writer who is always finding new and eloquent ways to tell our story. Thank you, Bo.

Gayle, thank you so much for helping me with getting all of the documents for the STH grant I applied for. I truly appreciate you, the support, and for affirmation about the grant. Thank you for helping me apply for my "first grant". I could not have done it without you.

Patty Terry, Rue and Gwen Gibson Farm Market
Patty went above and beyond to save wine bottles and give me farm market product to display in our World Ag Expo booth as well as provide "fluff" to fill product bags. Saved me an additional trip.

Having met Catherine over a year ago I can honestly say she is hands down the most amazing person I have ever met. No matter what time of day she will always make the time to talk to you, answer your questions, or assist you, and always with the kindest demeanor. She is not only an advisor but she is also the lead, and her leadership is with respectful and caring direction. She truly is an amazing advisor and person, I am so happy to work with her.
