January 2020 Appreciation
Candace Faistenhammer Bracey and Nathifa Davis Sligh stepped up when the TRiO SSP director resigned . They both jumped in to learn many areas outside of their previous job scope. Working to meet with various staff around campus and within the DoE. Recently the grant APR was submitted early. Also, while in this transition Â鶹´«Ã½s were taken care of.
Their commitment and positive attitude throughout all this was wonderful and appreciated.

I would like to offer appreciation for Sandra Kelly from the Office of Information Technology. Sandra and her counterparts in Payroll worked three days over closure to a) complete an important tax upgrade so that year end W-2 Wage and Tax Statements would be available to ALL WMU employees before the end of the calendar year (to help employees avoid tax fraud), and b) complete the last payroll of the year so that paychecks would be direct deposited into semi-monthly employee bank accounts by Friday, January 3, 2020. Thank you Sandra for your dedication to your job and the employees of WMU!

Dorilee Crown is our senior office administrator for Biological Sciences. She began in this position last year and has been a wonderful addition to the department. She has brought a lot of new ideas and initiatives to the department and it is always a pleasure to interact with her. For example, she has been reworking our department website to increase our marketability and web presence, and specifically she has helped me to update the graduate programs websites. She has also been instrumental in helping our department form an advisory board of alumni and community members. Dorilee is incredibly resourceful and makes a lot of things "just work" for the faculty and Â鶹´«Ã½s in the department. It's great to have Dorilee as a resource.

Mrs. Linda Hanson, first year faculty specialist in the Chemistry Department. She is truly a Â鶹´«Ã½-centered teacher who gives her all. The Learning Assistants assigned to Linda absolutely love working with her! She also has the most impressive e-Learning site that I've ever seen, chock full of resources for her Â鶹´«Ã½s to find success.

Mandy Cox, academic advisor in College of Health and Human Services Mandy is a superb hands on advisor. I have worked with her for several years helping Â鶹´«Ã½s smoothly transition from community college to WMU. Mandy always goes out of her way to communicate timely and accurately with Â鶹´«Ã½s, even those that want to point fingers and blame us. She is a great co-worker (even from afar) and truly has the best interest of every Â鶹´«Ã½ in mind.

Dorilee has been a pleasure to work with since she joined our department just over a year ago. She's always willing to work with faculty and staff to find solutions, she's making improvements to our website to allow others to learn the amazing graduate Â鶹´«Ã½s we have in our program, and she's working to develop giving to our program as well. She's an asset to our department and the university!
