Goes Above & Beyond

Fatih Yenen, Technology Services
Fatih created a new web page template for when we need to post the COVID exposure notifications online. Before that, every hyperlink, email address and phone number would need to be relinked each time (and had to be uploaded almost daily). Since we aren't primarily web people, the new template greatly expedites the process and reduces the chance for error. I really appreciate Fatih's extra effort to help us with this task. Thank you!

Ram Nunna, Lyles College of Engineering
I greatly appreciate how transparent our Dean has been throughout the pandemic. It’s very helpful to know what’s going on. Thank you, Dean Nunna!

Provided Excellent Customer Service

Rich Partida, Admissions and Recruitment
Thank you, Rich, for your willingness to serve on the Admissions Appeal Committee. I appreciate you sharing your views and helping to accomplish not only the Admission and Recruitment mission but also the mission of the University.

Saved My Bacon!

Haile Fitzwater, Craig School of Business
Haile saved me from a bat. She helped me escape from the mailroom where a bat was flying around. Thanks, Haile!
