Core Value Highlight on EXCELLENCE

September was about epitomizing excellence, which means we are elite in everything we do. Each month, we will share thoughts from people within our department about each core value.

“It is going above and beyond in preparation to ensure a finished product is exceptional. It's instilling a winning mentality in those you lead, setting a standard of performance that surpasses the ordinary, collaborating to maximize our work product, learning from mistakes, and remaining open to growth opportunities.” ~ Ashleigh Clare-Kearney Thigpen: Associate AD/ Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

“Epitomizing excellence means no detail is too small and everything matters.” ~ Andrea Tepe: Chief of Staff

“Excellence is not a light switch that is turned on and off. It is being, and epitomizing excellence means consistently using one's platform to better self and others. It does not mean every day will be great. Yet even as challenges arise, the individual learns and grow through the adversity.” ~ Shaeeta Williams: Coordinator of Athletics Administration

“Epitomizing excellence is a daily habit that shows up in the big things and the small things.” ~ Cody Worsham: Chief Brand Officer
