Works Above and Beyond

Alix Gonzales, Mail Services
Alix has always provided Cashiering Services with excellent service. I mentioned in passing that I may come by to get a second delivery of mail on the upcoming payment deadline date so we can get all student payments deposited in time. The day came and Alix remembered this and contacted me to let me know they processed that day's mail and asked if I still wanted it that afternoon. I was so grateful. We were so busy I almost forgot. Alix even delivered it to us. This is just the most recent example of Alix going above and beyond for us.

Kelley Kitzmiller, Foundation Financial Services
As the analyst who manages the many, many foundation side trust accounts on campus, Kelley consistently navigates a high volume of work with great precision and efficiency. Her high-level skill is equally matched by her great care and deep patience with her work. She sees the big picture as clearly as the minutiae. Kelley is the kind of colleague who you'll learn something new from in nearly every interaction. Grateful for her!

Provides Excellent Customer Service

Tyler Lovejoy, Library
Tyler has consistently provided excellent customer service to our library employees by providing clear signage, attention-grabbing promotions design, updated maps, and lending their hands to many new projects at a moment's notice. Work is delivered consistently and in a timely manner. They are talented, hardworking, and always willing to listen, give and take feedback, and put the client's needs (our employees and library users) first. We're very glad Tyler joined our team!

Will Tubbs, Technology Services
Thank you Will Tubbs for your excellent technical assistance you provided to me on Sept. 11 when I was unable to gain password access to use my MacBook Pro in my Peters Building classroom. Your outstanding assistance helped me to work around this technical issue and still conduct my class successfully. I appreciate your high level of technological expertise, patience and kindness you extended to me as you helped resolve this issue for me!
