Both praise and lunch were lavish for Staff Appreciation Day on June 15. "Because You're Worth It" was the theme for the day, which began with a morning reception and motivational speech by Jerald Chesser, Dean of The Collins School of Hospitality Management, in the CLA Building at 8 a.m. The day's events were organized by Staff Council, including overall co-chairs Rita Haerr and Brandi Strand.
