Shout Outs

I'm so glad to have had the opportunity to work with you, Chad! Your attention to detail and style were greatly appreciated! Thanks for doing such a great job on the Graduate Scholar and the ceremony program. The publications looked terrific and will make awesome keepsakes for the student winners for years to come, I'm sure!

Shout out to the Go-to, Gets it done, Friendly, Considerate, Helpful, On-it, Conor Baltz!

Conor, once again, with the help of his awesome student workers, made hosting both the Graduate Student Research/Creative Activity Fair and the Graduate Student Award Ceremony in Doudna feel effortless. There are so many moving parts to coordinating these events, and knowing I don’t have to worry about this one is such a relief. Huge thanks, Conor!!

She is student focused, collaborative and innovative - the course is going to be fantastic. She is also a strong advocate for our students and their success. It's exciting to hear her ideas, see her passion and know that our students will have a better experience because of her efforts.
