Griz Gratitude
The entire team in Educational Initiatives and Innovation would like to extended our deepest thanks to the wonderful facilities crew that helped UMSummer, Specialty & Extended Programming, and the Instructional Design team move offices on Tuesday, May 27. Skip Conroy and his team showed up bright and early, ready to work. They were fast and efficient despite how hot it was in the building that morning. Because of their expertise, we were able to complete the move and get back to work by 10 a.m. We couldn't have done it without this amazing crew of laborers!

The Office of Admissions would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to everyone across campus who helped with the three Admitted Student Day events we hosted this spring. From Conference Services, Catering & Dining, Housing, the Office for Student Success, Student Financial Services, Parking, New Student Success, the DHC, GLI and each academic college that presented breakout sessions to every department and organization who tabled at one or all three of the events (and probably others we’re neglecting to mention.) We are so grateful to everyone for your help and support in making these events successful and helping us welcome over 600 guests to campus!
