In November, MCHHS Dean Dr. Mark Smith launched the Gratitude Campaign.  

In a college-wide email, Smith stated, “It is during good times that I am reminded we often take for granted the everyday, yet important, parts of our careers and lives that make a difference for others.” 

From Nov. 1-14, postcards were made available for students, faculty and staff to express their gratitude to whoever they felt thankful for. 

All postcards were collected by the Dean’s Office, then sorted and hand delivered to recipients by Nov. 17, just in time for Thanksgiving Break. 

In a mere few weeks, over 1,000 postcards were delivered throughout campus to a variety of colleges, not just MCHHS. 

Many faculty and staff commented on the positive atmosphere that was created by the campaign.   

The Gratitude Campaign far surpassed engagement within the MCHHS family, in the best way possible. 

In the words of Ted Lasso:  

“To the family we’re born with, and to the family we make along the way.”
