Applause awards
Kevin Dunn, Larry Stone and Kevin Otten, Landscaping
"Kevin, Larry and Kevin went above and beyond their duty last Friday afternoon, when a student organizing a 5K run around campus the following morning called asking for a grassy area around a pathway to be cut down. It was close to 3 p.m. and I explained that most likely it couldn't be done, but Kevin, Larry and Kevin did it, helping to the success of this event. Thank you so much!"

"Sandra Bannister and Kerry Gilbert are deserving of the Applause Award for the extraordinary work they did creating a virtual "Poster Session" for the recent WASC Educational Effectiveness Review Team Visit. The poster session included over 105 power point slides illustrating the work done by academic departments, university-wide programs, and university divisions in support of "Educating the Whole Student." This presentation was shown to the WASC Visiting Team and SSU students, faculty, and staff at the opening reception for the WASC visit.The display, on 46" monitors, was visually stunning and reflected the exceptional work done by faculty and staff in support of SSU's mission. Sandra and Kerry designed the "posters", working with materials submitted by departments and units across campus. Their dedication to the university and the WASC accreditation went well beyond their specific duties as marketing directors of their units. To view the poster session, please visit the WASC Accreditation website at www.sonoma.edu/aa/portfolio. Congratulations Sandra and Kerry for your outstanding work!"
