Dear Student Life team,

It’s National Student Employee Appreciation Week, and I’m inviting you to get in on the action!

With nearly 5,000 students employed by Student Life throughout each academic year, it’s likely that each of us knows at least one student who works throughout our operation. That said, I encourage our entire team to please take a moment to show appreciation to the student employees you know and work with. It can be as simple as a “thank you for all you do” when passing them in the hall or sending a Kudos note using the tool on the Kindness website. You can hand-write and deliver a thank you note, or send a thoughtful email. If you have time, you might even want to take a student to lunch or treat them to their favorite drink at Espress-OH.

 However you choose to express your appreciation, I am confident they will be Scarlet and Grateful to hear from you!
