Billy Pitts, Cody Fidler, James Galloway and Brian Bumm

Billy Pitts, Cody Fidler, James Galloway and Brian Bumm (all Operations and Maintenance): Thank you to the plumbers who have been working on a serious drain issue for one of the drinking fountains in Rawls. When the fountain stopped draining, they came over and worked on it, augered it as much as possible, and went into the wall and down below the floor to find the blockage. They got wet, dirty and even tore some clothes, but in the end, the team successfully resolved the issue and got the water not only flowing in but also flowing out again. Thanks, Billy, Cody, James and Brian, for your diligence and persistence. – Michael Humphrey (Mitchell E. Daniels, Jr. School of Business)
