Now, with the new front desk staffing system, she can devote more time to serving students. The front desk, with five small modern lamps hanging above, is staffed by people familiar with all aspects of graduate education. We've educated our staff across all of the service functions that we perform for graduate students. Rande Clarke, team leader at the front desk, says the students' needs are their focus. Nearby, at one of several stylish round tables, graduate student Marc Banks chats with Ene Fisher from graduate records.
Banks says the new facility is a big improvement on the old one.
This is much nicer. It makes a good first impression. Sunlight dances through the leaves outside the many glass windows. A small area with comfortable chairs and a coffee table complete with magazines offers graduate students a spot to wait for appointments . Much attention in the design of the space was also given to employee needs and comfort.
