Shouts!

A *GIANT* shout-out to Kelly Partenheimer, who somehow manages to keep us all from running over each other or into each other as we plan and host different events on campus. She is always patient with questions and changes and confusions (my confusions, not hers).

I don't know how you do it, Kelly--and I don't know what we would do without you! Thank you so much.

The administration would like to thank Chris and his team for the diligence and hard work they put in during the recent rain storm.  They identified a potential major electrical issue and corrected it with only minor inconveniences to the campus.  The alternative would have been a $500,000 repair bill.  Thank you Chris and team!! 

BIG THANK YOU to Sam Eddinger for his expertise and patience with my recent computer issue.  Re-imaged and everything is where it belongs and working again!  

BIG shout out to Kim Brookins!!! She is the best BSW on campus! Kim is such a hard worker who's very pleasant and helpful. You Rock!

What can you say about Merry?  Merry has such a depth of knowledge in her area that she is amazing.  What would we do without her?  Merry is always ready to lend a hand and help you enjoy the payroll process as she solves any issues you may have.  GREAT JOB, Merry!

Whenever you walk in the Cashier Office, you are met with a smiling face.  Rhonda is great to work with; always helping whenever asked.  Great Job!

Susan provides great customer service and is always willing to help.  She is a wonderful example of what an employee should do each and every day.  Thanks, Susan.

Thanks for being willing to go to Chicago in my place even though it was very last minute notice. 

Thanks so much, Bill, for being patient and kind when people (umm, I) are grumpy and out of sorts in the library. You make the library a good place to be!

Thank you for your continued recruitment efforts.  Your organizational skills are phenomenal!

Excellent Recruitment Forum yesterday!  Many thanks to you and the Admissions Office for your diligence in spreading the greatness of EIU to others.

Excellent Recruitment Forum on Friday!  Your excitement and momentum are inspiring.

A big shout out to Chief Martin, Officer Hoh and the rest of EIU's Police Department for the ALICE training yesterday!  Your commitment to the safety and education of our EIU community isn't taken for granted and I thank you, again, for your service.

Ben Grapperhaus arrived back to campus a day before he was required, to staff Lawson Hall for the arrival of new and incoming international students. His assistance, hospitality and professionalism have been TOP NOTCH! He has been timely, welcoming and even offered a helping hand to quickly get everyone inside from the cold weather. Thanks Ben!
