Notes of recognition for the two latest nominees:

Rayne and the rest of the Dining Services Staff continue to go above and beyond in so many ways. In particular, Rayne has consistently gone above and beyond to ensure that each event we schedule for guests of the College are high class and tailored to the individuals needs. Rayne went above and beyond recently and gave generously of her own time and talents outside of normal work hours as a volunteer to help with a Celebration of Life in honor of someone dear to the College and the Recreation Department. We appreciate her.
-Angie Vandenhaak, director of development, and LeaAnn Martin, dean of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences

Michelle is a delight to work with. Besides being a friendly voice, she's always willing to help and get the information that's needed in a very timely manner and making it sound as though it's no trouble at all. It's wonderful to know that she's at the other end of the line and can be relied on. Thank you, Michelle!
