"SOS is very honored that one of its team members is receiving such an award," says Frieda Lee, director of Student Outreach Services. "Stacy is our 'focal point' with respect to keeping everyone on track with deadlines, meetings, requirements, and upcoming activities. She juggles all of our needs, thinks ahead, organizes well, and meets those needs in a very timely manner. This busy office generates a lot of paperwork and she manages to keep track of all of it."

Besides performing a full range of secretarial and administrative duties, Gin is responsible for coordinating the Campus Tour Program and providing accurate information to prospective students, school counselors and the general public regarding SFSU.

Gin, a 2000 graduate in meteorology, began working for the office in August 2000.

"Because we're on the road so much during key recruitment months, Stacy has been our primary representative on campus with the public," adds Lee. "She and the office student interns keep the office afloat, meeting and greeting, showing SFSU to visitors, saying nice things about us, and so forth. She represents the University well."

Please join us in congratulating Stacy and thank her for making such a difference.

As the STAR of the Month, Gin will enjoy four free lunches on campus, a free parking pass or equivalent in one month's public transportation costs, and more. She will also be eligible for the STAR of the Year award.
