“Melanie did a fabulous job overseeing the Provost’s Staff Appreciation Breakfast.  What a feat!  She did an amazing job working through all of the details. The food was great. The program was great. The gift baskets and raffle prizes were spectacular. I couldn’t believe that when I arrived early before the event, everything was totally under control…all of the planning and attention that was paid to the details really showed.  Thanks for a super job!” –Luann Budd

“Andy has done a great job this year in recognizing the role of staff in our division — I especially appreciate the professional development grant funding that he made available to all staff and also the staff appreciation breakfast.” –Luann Budd

“Wil, our student assistant, stepped beyond his normal duties to help a former student clear up a grade in order to officially graduate.  It was an issue that has been unresolved for over 2 years.  Wil displayed patience when dealing with this student who was persistent and unhappy with the bureaucracy on campus.  Wil took the time to listen to the student and understand the situation before offering help.  Wil contacted several offices that could help and continued to follow up until there was a resolution.  The student returned to our office and offered gratitude for the assistance he received from Wil and everyone else that helped him.  Wil is a fine example of what a Spartan should be.” –Anonymous

“I must commend to you Candice McGee for her exceptional efforts in helping SJSU host the International Street Medicine Symposium in our MLK Library this week, Oct 14-17.

Going back to July and extending right through this week, Candice has helped us/CCLL and the local organizers, Valley Homeless Healthcare Program, meet the challenges of hosting this reputable international conference here in San Jose. (Last year it was held in Dublin!) She was even down there this morning to welcome organizers and double check the set-up.

Candice has graciously helped CCLL time and again in arranging events at the MLK, but this particular event “coordination” deserves this special commendation.”
