💜💛 That’s One of Ours! 💜💛

Here at the SHL there is something special about walking across campus and seeing students and alumni recognized for their accomplishments. Seeing a familiar face displayed among ECU’s award recipients and thinking, “That’s one of ours,” is a proud moment every time. ✨

That feeling was especially true when we spotted 2026 Outstanding Student Employee Christina Williams (Class of ’26). 🌟 Christina exemplifies the qualities of hospitality and leadership through her dedication, professionalism and commitment to serving others. 🤝💼

Moments like these remind us why we do what we do. Seeing our students recognized for their hard work and impact on the ECU community is always worth celebrating. 🎓🏆

We are incredibly proud of Christina and this well-deserved recognition, and we are even prouder to call her one of ours. Congratulations, Christina! 🎉👏
