Thank you to my LLP family! Thank you for being the best team on campus - outside of Athletics :o) I love your dedication and ingenuity towards making our students’ college experience fulfilling and meaningful. It gives me chill bumps to see how your work has provided students with pivotal moments, through peer friendships and opportunities, that will continue to help them grow and prosper, well after they have left UK. Well done!

Thank you to all of the staff in A&S who have struggled this year with juggling remote work all while dealing with NTI and caring for themselves and other family members.

Professor and staff

I just want to thank my professor and the staff for their support! As a freshman at the University it was a huge challenge with the online learning and the pandemic, therefore without your support I don't think I could make it this far! I'm so grateful to have had you as a professor and staff! Our course was so easy, you were there when we needed you to explain any aspect that was unclear in a chapter. Thank you very much! It was a great experience we finally face and win the challenge🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Thank you to all of my Anthropology colleagues - you stepped up and over the challenges of 2020 like they were ripples on the path ahead. You have worked so hard, and for so long, succeeding in teaching classes, mentoring students, doing the business of the department (and college and university), carrying on with your scholarship, and perhaps most important at this moment in time: being kind to each other. I am honored to serve as chair for this extraordinary group of faculty.

Thanks so much to all our terrific Directors of Undergraduate Studies, who have had to do double-duty during these last 10 months. This has been a challenging semester for everyone, and you have been called on to support students, provide extra academic advice, answer emails from concerned parents, and juggle undergraduate schedules in every modality.

I am very thankful to Brynn and Andrew for their help over the summer and this fall to get offices and spaces set up, deliver chairs, file cabinets, bookcases, shove desks around, or whatever else it took to get the job done. They did this sometimes in dirty warehouses or spaces and with little prior notice, and always with a smile and a can-do attitude. Truly hard workers and team players!
