High Fives are easy to give — simply go to the High Five website on the Organizational Excellence webpage, click “Give a High Five” and fill out the form to send kudos to anyone on campus. Your message will be delivered straight to their inbox, and recipients will be acknowledged weekly in Campus News.

Goes Above & Beyond

Nicole Traverso, Careen Wong, Donna Moreno, Alumni Association
Nicole, Careen, and Donna have quickly become the Dream Team of virtual events planning and coaching on campus. Since early summer, they have pivoted at warp speed from their standard Alumni Association job duties to a full-fledged events planning resource team, always open and willing to train and mentor anyone on campus willing to partner with FSAA on producing and promoting virtual events. They've made an easy-to-use and shareable online toolkit, have provided expert and patient logistical support and encouragement, and most importantly have kept the eyes of collaborators on the big-picture goals of community engagement and student support. Can't thank these colleagues enough!
