All in a Day's Work
Sharing an uplifting memorable moment or conversation with a student facing a challenge, something that makes working in higher ed rewarding (identifying details omitted). All in a Day's Work stories can also share ways that professors and administrators have inspired a student or group of students to develop an initiative that helps other students, encouraging leadership skills (OK to include student group or individual names to give them credit for their initiative).
