Congratulations are in order
for Paul Tiglao!
Paul has been recognized as the President’s Employee of the Month for August!!
This is an outstanding accomplishment and we are proud to recognize Paul for
his great work and outstanding service to the university.
Paul has been with the university since 1992 and currently serves as the
Business Systems Analyst in the Systems Operations and Development Department.
Over the years, Paul has assisted many employees on campus and most recently
played an integral role in bringing the new E-Market program to our campus.
This program assures PCI and cash handling compliance while giving a much
more efficient, 24/7 available method of making payments for various types of
campus related services. I’m proud to recognize Paul for his outstanding
achievements and service to the campus community.
Some of you may know that when I joined CSUSM in 2001 in Student Financial
Services, Paul was one of the first employees I had the honor and pleasure of
working with. He was always pleasant, good natured and willing to step up
and assist in any way possible. I remember Jan Cushman saying to me that
"Paul is the glue that holds Student Financial Services together". I
thank Paul for all of his contributions to Student Financial Services and for
the achievements he has and will continue to have in Systems Operations and
Development.
Please join me in congratulating Paul for his outstanding achievement!
I hope you all have
had the opportunity to read the latest article in the NewsCenter: Student
Saves a Life on the Way to Class. If you have not had an opportunity yet to
read the article, I encourage you to do so. This article highlights, our very
own VPFAS Office student assistant, Lindsey Cunningham!
Two years ago,
Lindsey provided a cheek swab to the Be the Match booth
on the way and it forever changed a life. Long after the cheek swab was
forgotten, Lindsey received a call that she is a match for a little boy, who is
battling leukemia. Lindsey bravely agreed to donate her bone marrow to a young
boy she may never meet.
Lindsey has gone on
an extraordinary journey, giving hope to a little boy and his family, and
inspiring all of us to help others. We are proud and honored to share her
story, as we have watched her courageously go through this process, shuffling
priorities and rearranging her schedules, to give a 10-year old boy a second
chance at life. She has made more than an impact – she has saved a life.
She is an
inspiration to us all.
