coe-staff: Faculty/Staff Meeting

[Charles Martinez]

Dear Mia,

I suspect I speak for many others when I say I'm sad that you did not get to bask in the glow of our collective appreciation yesterday. I know a bit about the challenges of administrative leadership assignments, and you have done a superb job of leading the COE this year. Rather than simply "minding the store" of a COE context that has been on an impressive trajectory under former Dean Bullis's guidance, you have helped us climb even higher with your energy and laser sharp focus. Your intelligence, grace, kindness, and authenticity has had a lasting impact on the COE, and you have helped steer us through a number of critically important institutional initiatives and transitions.

"Thank you" cannot begin to capture the appropriate level of appreciation for the service you have provided to the COE community.  Know that you have a made a real difference.

With gratitude,

Charles

Dear COE Community,

My apologies for missing the end of term faculty/staff meeting. I woke up with a case of vertigo (my first) brought on by an inner ear imbalance. Who knew? I am confident that Lauren did a splendid job and thank her for stepping in at the last minute.

I wanted to take a moment to thank everybody for their warm reception and support this past year. It has been my pleasure and honor to serve as interim dean of the college. I will be working closely with Randy over the next few months to ensure a smooth transition.

Have a good weekend,
Mia
