Staff Appreciation Week Concludes Today
The second annual Staff Appreciation Week comes to a close today with three different events taking place.
All staff are invited to bring a lunch for Friday Brown Bag Lunch: Office 365, the Cloud, & You, taking place from noon to 1 p.m. in ARKU 503. This information session is presented in collaboration with Teresa Waddell, IT director for Fulbright College, and Mark Larmoyeux, IT director of the Graduate School.
At 3 p.m. in the HPER Natatorium, all staff are invited to watch the Swim and Dive meet against Drury. Admission is free and the first 50 staff members will receive a free Chik-Fil-A sandwich and a Razorback T-shirt.
Finally from 4-6 p.m. staff members are invited to receive a UREC Body Composition Screening free of charge. You will learn about your personal muscle-to-fat ratio and how to evaluate your current calories burned on UREC's new InBody Composition Analyzer. This will be located in the HPER Assessment Room, located on the second floor, next to the Natatorium. Please wear comfortable clothing and shoes for the assessment.
