Cindy Weatbrook - January 2023

Cindy Weatbrook, Graduate Student Coordinator for the Chemistry & Biochemistry Department, was named as the January 2023 Employee of the Month in recognition of her "exceptional performance in all areas of her work!"

She was commended for "always meet[ing] deadlines, even when faced with a heavy workload." But it goes beyond simple job responsibilities for Cindy. She genuinely cares for the graduate students in her care. For example, she created a "starving student" cupboard in the department breakroom to ensure that graduate students working in labs late at night or on the weekends are able to find nourishment after hours.

She goes above and beyond her department duties by serving as a member of the USU Title XI review committee, advocates for graduate student compensation, representation and rights, and consistently goes the "extra mile!"

Her positive attitude, ability to get along with faculty, staff, and students, and helping hand make Cindy a pleasure to work with and an asset to her department and the university!

Thanks Cindy for a job well done! Congratulations on an honor well-deserved!
