Dear All, I am happy to announce a new member to our Main Office team, Autumn Dransoff, whose first day in the office is today. She will be the new Administrative Assistant assigned to the main office desk in FRNY 1060. Lauren Hays was promoted this past semester and will be transitioning to her new area in FRNY 1029. Autumn is an active member in the Air National Guard and has years of experience working in multiple office environments dealing with the United States Air Force. She plans to attend Purdue as a part-time student studying Geoscience. Once we complete her training on various processes/systems, she will be providing support to various faculty, those to be transitioned will be notified soon. Her duties will involve similar roles as when Lauren was in the position i.e. the main office desk, the main office kitchenette, office supplies, event coordination, as well as providing clerical support to Dr. Kim and Betty. We are very happy to have Autumn on the team and I am sure she will prove to be a valuable member to our ChE community. Please join me in welcoming her to the School and Purdue University.

BE ADVISED - We have heard that the chillers on south campus, which supply the cooling water for indoor air, are having problems. They are working to repair but until then, we will experience warmer temperatures and higher humidity in the building. Please take the necessary precautions for your equipment and be careful while walking as the floors may become slippery. Thanks. Jeff Valley
