Long before students arrive on campus for their first day of class, there are Admissions staff who are there to invite them and their families to the university, answer questions, and show them what makes this community so special. A colleague recently wrote this about our latest nominee who is one those staff members:

“Autumn consistently goes above and beyond in all she does - whether assisting fellow staff, helping onboard new counselors, or supporting our students and families in her territory. She never meets a stranger and approaches every interaction with a smile, kindness, and a genuine desire to help. Autumn’s positivity and dedication make her an invaluable member of our team.”
