THE BUILDING MANAGEMENT NEWSLETTER
|
It is always inspiring to see the graduating class head to the field, after getting to know them for four years. BGM scrambles to make the campus look beautiful and welcoming for the Class of 2013's family and friends. I take my hat off to Event Services. Wow, the logistics are unbelievable, but they, along with the Grad Crew of students, have every detail down. Grounds works hard to give that extra effort for all of the 92 IDA sites and pathways on campus. The Department of Project Management stops many construction projects to limit noise and dust for the four days. Many of you are involved with Commencement, but many at Stanford work at various tasks that are not as focused on the academic calendar. Whatever your job, take a moment and look out at your surroundings. If you see an area that was overlooked (doubt it, but it does happen), please call your Zone Team over the next few days so we can attend to it. During commencement, remember if you see a safety or cleanliness issue that needs immediate attention, call Dispatch, 723-2281 to report it.

Thank you to all who make the Farm such a special place.
