SHOUT OUTS!
Staff Senate is currently recognizing employees who receive a Shout Out. Eligible employees will receive a $10 EIU Food court gift card.
Welcome to the Eastern Illinois University Shout Out Page. Staff Senate initiated this page to
support and boost the morale of all EIU employees and promote a positive campus spirit. “Shout Outs”
are a public recognition of thanks or appreciation. We want to give recognition to the great works
done by many individuals, departments, and others, on a day-to-day basis.
We encourage you to use the Shout Out submission form to acknowledge and recognize a fellow employee.
To create a Shout Out, please click on the ‘Make a Shout Out’ tab and log in using your Net Id and
Password. Once the Shout Out form is submitted, a moderator will review and then proudly display
your submission on the Shout Out page. Random submissions will also be posted on social media such
as Facebook and Twitter.
This page was created in memory of UPD officer Harold Harris.

Jude always shows up with a smile and a ready-to-go attitude! Jude also updated our Global Site Manager - which was very old and very in need of an overhaul. The new version is much more user friendly and has new features that makes everyone's jobs easier. Thanks Jude!

Ryan always steps up and helps all students whether incoming or current. He is a team player in the Admissions Department- helping their staff and brainstorming ideas. He definitely "Bleeds Blue" wherever he goes.

Huge thanks to Mike for coming to the rescue! I hadn't reviewed our catering contract closely enough, and didn't notice it didn't list the vegetarian option for our student meeting. Mike was kind enough to offer to work with his staff to quickly put together a plate of the awesome veggie wraps for our students. Mike's help exemplifies why I always appreciate working with Panther Catering!

Kaity is always willing to help out students and faculty any time they need anything. On top of that, she always makes sure the Chemistry Stockroom and labs run smoothly. The CHEM dept is lucky to have her!

Thank you to Amy for her dedication to helping our students. She listens, works to help them find solutions, and is focused on helping our students believe in themselves and achieve their goals. She definitely "bleeds blue" and represents the best that EIU has to offer our students and their families.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for coming to the Open House on Saturday! Slowly but surely your presence with the Military Assistance Center has and will continue to make such an impact on campus for our new and continuing students. This is only the first step but thank you for taking it! 😊
