Be kind.  Be positive.  Be strong.  Be safe.

April is a good time to let someone know that you appreciate their kindness, their work ethic, their ability to go above and beyond to solve a problem or even their smile.  Please take the time to send someone a thank you card. Cards may be addressed to faculty, staff or students within CNAS or MSU. Thank you cards are available in all CNAS departmental offices and the dean’s office.  Cards should not go into the regular mail but instead place them in the collection boxes in departmental offices or dean’s office.  All cards will be delivered to recipients by May 1.
