Farewell to the person who kept our department together for nine years, our fabulous Program Coordinator, Jodi Jordan!

We are all very sad and will miss Jodi terribly — and will probably be going out of our mind for the next school year — but we are overjoyed that she is moving on to a bigger and better opportunity in the “other” campus.

Goodbye, but also, see you around, Jodi.
Many blessings on your new endeavor!
