Shout Outs

Jean Toothman is amazing! She gives 100% to her work, even when some of us don't completely deserve it (we know who we are). The English Department is incredibly lucky to work with such a dedicated, knowledgeable, and caring professional.SHOUT OUT TO JEAN!

Thank you for the wonderful job you're doing with the Cafe! 

The ITS Department would like for everyone to give a big round of applause to Jason Hamilton. This guy is the cause of a lot of the success we do here in the ITS department. The majority of his work and accomplishments are behind the scenes. If it wasn’t for his talent and kindness, then the Technicians and other areas would have to work a lot harder than they already do. Thank you Jason for being such an important part of this campus!

We had an issue with a laptop computer in the laboratory at CENCERE. I called this in last Friday afternoon, expecting someone to come out on Monday. Instead, Dave stopped by on his way home and tried to help us with our problem- inability to log in. By stopping to help us, he delayed his family's departure for a trip to the Chicago area. Thank you, Dave, for going the extra mile!

Angie you are AWESOME!! We appreciate all of your reports, crunching number and doing it with such tact! Keep up the good work and thanks for your dedication.......even when you don't feel good. :)

Josh, served on the ADIR committee in fall 2015. He did an amazing job securing a room where we could do conference calls including Skyping; was quick on his laptop (always present), adding the various activities to his calendar which sent other members and automatic add (I really appreciated that), and keeping us going with a healthy dose of humor, especially on long days. Josh definitely deserves a shout out! 

Great job in all you do in processing an increasing number of international student applicants and also with current students! You are EIU :-)

I really appreciate Marilyn's hard work, diligence and expertise in processing many more international applications. Great job!!!

Thank you to Josh Norman! He is always so responsive and so helpful in finding the answers you need! Even if he isn't the person who can take the action you need, he always makes sure that you find the right person. We are lucky to have him on campus.

Claudia is a great person to have on a hiring committee and I really appreciated her unique perspective and poise during the process. Thank you for contributing to a fun and efficient process for hiring the ADIR!

Catherine is an amazing person to have on a hiring committee, she brings organization and is very funny. She is the queen of rubric creation and utilization. Really appreciate your contribution on the committee to hire the ADIR.

As the chair of the most efficient and fun hiring committee I have ever been on, I really appreciated all you brought to the committee. After I swore I would never be on another hiring committee again, I would sign up for one with our members again in a heart beat.

Thank you Dawn for being so friendly and creating an Argos report so quickly for exactly what I needed! You made a part of my job much easier!

Aaron always answers all my random questions and quickly. He's streamlined and standardized a lot of processes in ITS. He's doing a lot for EIU!

Shout out to Stacia and her team for the latest issue of Forever EIU. This was the best booklet yet. I absolutely loved the personal connection and feel throughout the entire issue. All of the stories reflected everything that EIU stands for. Your team is the BEST!

Shout Out to Kevin and his team in the International Students and Scholars Office. What an awesome large group of International students who arrived on campus this spring to attend EIU. Thanks for all of your hard work to ensure our enrollment goals and keeping our campus diverse.
