Volunteers needed for Commencement prep
Randy Bass is seeking a few faculty/staff volunteers to help with Commencement preparations early Saturday morning. The primary task for which help is needed is wiping off the chairs. Volunteers are asked to be here by 7 a.m. to help complete that task ahead of the arrival of guests. If you would like to volunteer, please contact Randy at rbass@peace.edu or X2337.
Today is deadline for Facilities and House and Grounds survey
Employees are asked to please take a few minutes today to complete the on-line survey about how Peace College facilities and grounds are maintained. The collection of this data is important to our SACS reaccreditation process. All who complete the survey and put their name on the form will be entered in a drawing for a $30 gift certificate to the Bookstore. The deadline for completing the survey is today. The survey is available here: https://peacecollege.wufoo.com/forms/survey-assessment-facilities-and-house-grounds/
