Human Resources

I am a biochemistry and molecular biology major, I spend much of my time in Gottwald. I would like to recognize Sammy, one of the Gottwald custodians, who brings something special to campus. He embodies everything that the university aims to represent, and is doing an absolutely phenomenal job within this community. He always has a warm smile and a friendly hello to make Gottwald a welcoming place. I have gotten to know him and I always look forward to our interactions. His kindness and positivity go beyond written job duties and should be something the University encourages and recognizes. Years from now, when I leave UR, I will forget many details of my time here, but I will remember Sammy as part of what was great about my four years at Richmond. - Submitted by Paxton Calder, Student

Kudos to Dwayne Smith, Jean Creamer, Kristen Ball, Debbie Coward, Kim Duren, Erica Jackson, Kimberly Johnson, Bryan Moyer, Renee Peterson, and Marija Vjestica in the Registrar's office. They are always on it and so quick to help with anything and everything one may need. This team truly deserves recognition for their consistent hard work. I and so many others are appreciative for each and every one of them. Thank you for all you do! - Submitted by Sabrina Anderson in the History Department

Kudos to Emily Peebles, Administrative Coordinator for Religious Studies, Diane Zottie of Sociology/Anthropology and Jennifer Lo Prete in A&S Communications Emily, Diane and Jennifer are fantastic administrative teammates. They both jumped in for UR Giving Day and processed the pictures for all the departments and programs in A&S that were used on the individual pages for Giving Day. They provided amazing service and help to our Administrative Team. Jennifer Lo Prete, Communications Manager for A&S did the huge lift of getting each department in A&S their own personalized page for UR Giving Day. This was a huge job and it is fantastic that all of our departments and programs had their own personalized pages that our alumni, families, and friends would be excited to donate to! Thank you Jennifer for spearheading this project! Many thanks to all of you for this project and your great work for all the departments and programs in A&S!- Submitted by Susan Wolski in A&S
