Leanne Moeller, department support supervisor; Jennifer Sheets, administrative support coordinator; and Sandy Trimboli, administrative specialist serve the English department as a team and insisted that they be nominated as a unit rather than individuals. They say that the department runs smoothly because of their collective efforts, and that is certainly true. The English department is the largest department on campus—bigger than several colleges—yet has a well-deserved reputation for smooth and friendly operations. The unit is unparalleled in the accurate and efficient ways in which they manage cross-departmental budgets, scheduling, technology, and support for English department programs, faculty, and students. They handle their many duties with speed, accuracy, diplomacy, and grace.
Managing the large numbers of people and tasks housed in the English department requires a team who mesh together well to move seamlessly from one semester to the next and whose collegiality is an example to us all.
