This week’s ‘Thumbs Up’ recipients

Chenell Loudermill, Kayce Solari Williams and Natasha Watkins

Congratulations to Chenell (Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences), Kayce (Public Health), Natasha (Human Development and Family Science), and their entire Health and Human Sciences leadership team and supporters from across campus and beyond for hosting the third annual STEP N2 STEM event Feb. 14. It was a phenomenal interactive community event of discovery into research and varied opportunities to see all that Purdue has to offer! — Jacquelyn Thomas-Miller (Education)

Alicia Asa

Thank you, Alicia (Purdue Conferences), for always being so flexible and understanding with last-minute event requests. I appreciate your hard work on my events; I know I can always count on you to do a great job. Keep up the good work. — Amanda Shields (Purdue Conferences)

Marsha Bundy

I wanted to recognize Marsha for her dedication to her Division of Financial Aid team members. A fellow staff member experienced a medical emergency, and Marsha stayed by her side and helped her until she received medical care. The staff member noted that Marsha took charge and coordinated everything and was her “angel,” staying by her side and reassuring her that everything was going to be OK. Thanks, Marsha, for your kind heart and care for our teammate! — Heidi Carl (Financial Aid)

Margaret Anderson

I would like to recognize Margaret (Purdue IT) for her outstanding support and exceptional customer service. While working through a challenging issue with sending a mail merge from a shared mailbox, Margaret took the time to patiently walk me through the process step by step and provided clear, thorough instructions that made all the difference. Her expertise, professionalism and willingness to go above and beyond not only resolved the issue but also restored my confidence in the process. Her documentation was easy to follow, and her approach was both supportive and solution oriented. Her support truly turned a frustrating situation into a success. Purdue is fortunate to have someone as dedicated and knowledgeable as Margaret supporting its staff. — Terri Donald (Enrollment Management)

Jason Swank

Big shoutout to Jason (Operations and Maintenance) from Zone 4! His positive attitude and strong work ethic truly stand out. He always completes his work promptly and makes sure it meets customer expectations. Jason consistently goes above and beyond and is never hesitant to step in and help others. We’re lucky to have him on the team! — Duane Peterson (Operations and Maintenance)
