Linda Langston, administrative assistant in campus life and leadership, has been named October Employee of the Month at MCC-Maple Woods.

Linda invests herself wholeheartedly in all the work projects that she takes on. Her "above and beyond” work habits include the detailed and very creative banners and signage for events, baskets decorated with fountains of curling ribbon, and office décor touches that add class and fun to the academic and work environment.

She constantly documents activities, events and wonderful student moments with photos and then sends them via email or Facebook to share with others. She keeps all the photos well organized and archived for departmental and campus marketing purposes. She stays in touch with the students through texting and Facebook and sends out reminders as needed. This is all beyond the rest of the routine work of event planning, documentation, contracts, and more mundane paperwork involved with campus life and leadership office activities.
