The Greek philosopher Heraclitus is credited with the idea that the only constant in life is change. While we all know embracing change can be challenging, there are strategies and resources that can help us feel more comfortable with change and even learn to use it as a catalyst for excellence.

Meet two staff members in Administration and Finance (A&F) who are sharing their stories.

The Division of Student Life recognized members of Infrastructure and Sustainability (I&S) and awarded them the Friends of Student Life award. This annual award is given to an individual (or group) outside of the division for “Outstanding contributions through exceptional dedication in support of the mission and vision of Student Life.” The recognition was for their collaborative efforts to make last fall's Family Weekend such a huge success.

I&S award recipients include:

Senior Director of Institutional Research and Planning and triple Jacket Jason Wang has helped the Office of Sustainability and Sustainability Next team members collect data for numerous projects, including serving on the team for the Sustainability Tracking, Assessment & Rating System™ (STARS®) Report for over a year. His contributions have enabled consistent reporting for better decision-making across the Institute. 

Following a national search, the Georgia Institute of Technology has selected Leo Howell as its new vice president for Information Technology and chief information officer. Howell has served as interim vice president for Information Technology and chief information officer since Jan. 1.  

He will transition to his new permanent role on July 1 and will report directly to Shantay N. Bolton, executive vice president for Administration and Finance. 

The third annual A&F Breakfast After Dark will be hosted by the A&F Staff Culture Advisory Council to celebrate our second and third shift team members in appreciation for all they do for A&F and the Institute as a whole.

This special event will be held on Thursday, July 25, from 10 p.m. to midnight.
