Abstract
Lucille’s longevity on the admissions team was a reflection of her loyalty to the university and dedication to student service. She’d annually hold the crown for answering the greatest number of incoming phone calls from students and parents, and would manage the largest volume of tickets from prospective students. Lucille was also the teammate who would be the first to remind the staff to celebrate upcoming ultra-important days like “National Ice Cream Day” or “National Cookie Day.” The staff could always depend on her for a stocked candy and chocolate jar, which made her workstation a popular destination for staff and any of their children visiting the office. Over the years she was a reliable presence in the office, provided a valued historical perspective and would keep service to students and parents paramount to her work every day. From being involved in orientation to supporting admissions representatives with their duties to processing applications, she had an impactful career and the team will greatly miss her as a colleague and friend.
