Works Above and Beyond

Cory Cowan, Office of Institutional Effectiveness
Thank you, Cory, for going above and beyond!

Iuliana Papuc, Innovation and Digital Excellence for Academic Success
When I needed assistance amplifying my voice to ensure a good learning experience for students, Iuliana followed through to ensure that my teaching needs were met. She followed through with responding to my questions, troubleshooting the technology, making sure I understood how to use the microphone, and checking in to be sure the classes went well. Excellent customer service around accessibility and student learning, all with a very short turnaround. Thank you!

Joanne Ramirez, Division of Research and Graduate Studies
I would need more than this small space to list what Joanne does for the Division of Research and Graduate Studies! She not only works tirelessly for the division, but also for our amazing students. Thank you for taking the time to be so patient with my student and going above and beyond in helping him access the course he needed to continue with his studies. The things you do never go unnoticed! You're awesome!

Careen Wong, Alumni Association
Careen went above and beyond to make sure the Fresno State Alumni Association USC Red Wave Alumni Tailgate website, registration, attendee communication and check-in process ran smoothly. She went above and beyond to answer any questions, pivoted when needed and always lent a hand to help. She is a huge asset to the Alumni Association, and I am grateful to work with her day in and day out.

Provides Excellence Customer Service

Mike Daly, Facilities Management
Mike came to adjust the exterior door by my office as it was not properly closing. He was super nice and friendly. He did not hesitate to answer any questions I had. I liked that he tested the closing of the door at different openings to make sure it closed completely and adjusted when it did not close completely. To me, that is a sign of someone that takes pride in their work. Thank you, Mike!

Kelley Kitzmiller, Foundation Financial Services
Whenever I call or email Kelley, she provides me with the requested information quickly, correctly, and always in a friendly manner. I know she is very short handed in her area right now and yet her customer service has not diminished. She is one of the best on campus.

Dusty Reeves, Facilities Management
Dusty was excellent to work with on a project at the Smittcamp Alumni House. He listened to our needs, kept us informed of the bid process and executed the contract seamlessly. The project just concluded (ahead of schedule) and it looks fantastic. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication to the project.

Saved My Bacon

Sieumuoi Delcroix, Earth and Environmental Sciences
I was getting ready to give a presentation and realized I didn’t have all my material. Without hesitation she gave me what I needed and made it back with time to spare. Thank you so much Sieumuoi.
