Works Above and Beyond

Alex Moun, Technology Services
Alex consistently goes above and beyond to help our Admissions team enhance our PeopleSoft pages. His support has played a key role in streamlining our processes and improving overall efficiency and usability. Alex takes the time to understand how our workflows operate, which allows him to anticipate our needs when we request enhancements. He often provides thoughtful suggestions for even better solutions. Working with Alex is always a positive and collaborative experience. We truly appreciate the continued collaboration. Thank you, Alex!

Choua Vang, Jordan College Advising & Career Development Center
Choua did an outstanding job organizing SAEC’s Fall Pumpkin Decorating Mixer. She successfully coordinated all aspects of the event with help from her subcommittee, including securing a generous pumpkin donation that significantly reduced overall costs and made participation more accessible for staff. Her thoughtful planning created a welcoming and engaging atmosphere where attendees could network, collaborate and express their creativity. Throughout the process, Choua demonstrated strong leadership, initiative and attention to detail. I’m excited to see what future projects she takes the lead on and how she continues to contribute to SAEC’s success.

Saved My Bacon

Leticia Renaud, Environmental Health, Safety, and Risk Management
Leticia has gone above and beyond in assisting me with ensuring my student group will be covered for their travels this coming weekend. She has been incredibly kind and helpful to me and made sure that I fully understand the process. Thank you so much for all that you do!

The Parent Scholar program would like to recognize and thank all of the incredible departments and staff who made our Parent Scholar Trick-or-Treat event possible on Halloween. With one in five students being a student parent, being COLLABORATIVE is critical to these students' success. These department offices not only put a smile on the faces of many kids by offering treats but also helped to inform our Parent Scholars about the services available to support all aspects of their lives. We are truly grateful for your partnership and collaboration on this event and beyond.
