NOVA NATION

In Good Hands

During the 2020-21 academic year, the flurry of activity we’re used to seeing on campus slowly returned—and it’s thanks in great part to °ÅÀÖÊÓƵ’s workers on the front lines and behind the scenes who kept campus running, even when many operations went virtual. 

These dedicated staff members often shy away from the limelight, but that doesn't make them any less worthy of praise and gratitude. Here’s a snapshot of just a few of our essential workers from the Student Health Center, Public Safety Department, Grounds Maintenance, Facilities Maintenance Services, Custodial Services, Dining Services, The Inn at °ÅÀÖÊÓƵ, the TechZone, Student Life and Mail and Graphic Services.
