I know that it is going to be very busy from now until the time that grades are due (and beyond)!!
Since it is Thanksgiving –
Faculty – Thank you for the hours that you spend with students – teaching, mentoring and advising! Thank you for the hours you spend to make your department strong – recruitment, assessment and curriculum development! Thank you for your work on Faculty Senate, Graduate Faculty Senate, Budget Committees, Promotion/Tenure Committees and so much more!!! In so many ways – you help to make Missouri State stronger by voicing your opinions and voting on important matters. Thank you!!
