Shout-out to Dr. Sean Simons from Dr. Mi-Hwa Park
I want to express my gratitude for Sean's kind actions this morning (Wednesday, October 16 around 8:30 am). While I was attempting to get water from a fountain on the third floor, I discovered that it was out of order. I hadn't noticed water dripping from the fountain, but Sean did. He promptly placed a cup under the dripping water to prevent it from spilling onto the hallway carpet. Later, he went to the kitchen and brought a large container to replace the cup and stop the water from dripping. His quick thinking and helpfulness made him the most HANDSOME person to me this morning. Thank you again for your kindness. We are blessed to have someone like you around.
Shout-Out to the CDI Faculty from Missy Tish
The care these instructors have for their students is outstanding. When a student had a medical episode, it was "all hands on deck." They worked as a team to take care of the student until help arrived going above and beyond.
To send your own shout-out, click on the button below to fill out the form. It's a great way to show colleagues how awesome they are!
It will appear in the Midweek Round-Up as well as on the Faculty and Staff Shout-Out Board by the Dean's Office! Be sure to check it out when you're walking by!
