We recommend:

include any scheduled class times.• Departments are responsible for ensuring that there are no class/work schedule

conflicts.

Valued employees

Alice, You are welcome. I will do whatever I can to not only make your processes easier and mine but most important of all are the students themselves. It is hard to come by a great group of student employees who have such an interest in not only assisting the instructor but also the other students. We actually had one of our Student Assistants talk to the students in the Collegiate High School not only about being a student at SPC but being a student employee, which she is really going to miss because she is graduating after this term. Seeing the pride in their eyes knowing that they did a great job is priceless. It will be hard starting the year again because we will be losing six more students at the end of this term. Thank you all for everything and have a great afternoon!Marcia Marcia CastleSr. Administrative Services AssistantNatural Science & Wellness- SPG
