We then act as the greeters and supervisors for many of these events, welcoming everyone and accommodating any needs or questions they may have. We treat everyone with love and respect, and truly enjoy working for Dave Fatula, our boss, as well as with eachother. It is a fun job and a good way to get to know the people who make this university continue to grow and flourish.
