Mid-Terms Are Coming!

Good Afternoon!

I hope that you are enjoying the warmer weather and the beautiful sunshine that we are having!  I know that I am trying to get as much of it in as possible before the weather gets colder.  As we start moving toward mid-terms, there are several things that I want to make you aware of-

ETRC
We would like to recognize the hard work of Angela Williams, Tiguidanke Bah, and Jean Thelemaque for their work within the ETRC.  These three employees have moved to the new Testing Center effective October 1st.  Good Luck & Thank You!!!

***************
Finally, please remember to be extra kind and supportive of our students these next few weeks.  Mid-terms are coming and the stress level is rising!  Let's do our best to make this time as worry-free as possible!

Have a wonderful week and don't forget to send me announcements, comments, or inclusions for this blog.  I am also happy to highlight employees that you feel deserve special recognition.
