Season's Greetings!
The holiday season is upon us. First it's Thanksgiving. Then comes the end-of-semester activities: Group projects, final presentations, and exams. After your schoolwork is completed, priority shifts to the holiday festivities: Family gatherings, food, shopping, and thinking about those less fortunate. This time of year also reminds us to do something special for those in need, which brings me to a special memory from three years ago... |

From the Walsh family to yours, have a happy and safe
holiday season! Sincerely,  Jessica Knapik, MSM '04 Database Analyst, Records & Registration |
