Shaila and Talie Caught in the Act

Ever worked a shift at BUSP by yourself?  It's no picnic.  This past weekend, Talie worked four hours alone and Shaila worked six hours alone.  They were both very much on top of it and provided great service with much patience.  It's not easy maintaining the quality of service our guests deserve when you are working alone, but Talie and Shaila not only did that, they did it with smiles on their faces!

Thank you Shaila and Talie for maintaining the IC's reputable service and character while working all alone.  You are much appreciated!

Congratulations, Ross!

Ross is graduating this semester!  A Policy Analysis major from Dupont, IN, Ross has been a much valued part of our staff since his arrival in Fall, 2011. He was one of our very first Caught in the Act award winners. If you ask him his favorite thing about working at BUSP these past few years, he will quickly tell that that would be the friendships he has developed with co-workers. As he leaves, Ross advises you to make good use of the resources around you.  He reminds you that the I.C. has more to offer than just books and group rooms.

After his graduation, Ross will continue his association with the Center on Congress at I.U. We're mighty glad about that because it means, for at least the time being, he'll be working near us.  We're very much hoping he will make visits to BUSP so we don't miss him too much.  As for long term future plans, Ross intends to work in politics.  With his drive, good sense, and amiability, it won't surprise us at all to see him go far.  The future could very easily find us saying, "I knew Senator Neely when he was a student working at the Business/SPEA Information Commons."

Congratulations Ross, on a job so very well done.  We're so glad our paths have crossed with yours.  May Life bring you the very best it has to offer.

Tyler Caught in the Act

Tyler has been Caught in the Act!  Because of a staffing snafu this semester, he has worked parts of many shifts alone during a very busy time of the day.  While this would fluster a great many of us, Tyler has been observed always keeping his cool and delivering top-notch service to our guests.  He is a veritable juggling, multi-tasking genius. Way to go, Tyler! 

End of Semester Info

 
Only three weeks until the end of the semester and that includes finals week! 

--If you will not be returning to BUSP next semester (internship, graduation, etc.), please let Terry know right away. 

--I-Core is upon us!  Get your rest and be prepared for the craziness.  If you are going through I-Core this semester, we're rooting for you!

--Can't find the red room reservation notebook?  That's because we won't be taking any reservations until next semester.  Why?  Because reservations leave gaps when the rooms aren't in use.  With I-Core and final projects coming up, we want the rooms available for as many people as possible.  Rooms 154, 156, 158, and 160 are now available on a first-come, first served basis just the same as our other group rooms.  When our rooms are full and the wait list is long, please remind students that group space is also available in the newly remodeled areas of the Wells Library.

--Mark your calendars now:  Next semester's mandatory mass meeting has been set for Friday, January 23.  We'll gather together at 6:00 p.m. that day.
