Arlind Emini

College Avenue Supervisor Achievement Award

Arlind has been an Assistant Lab Supervisor at the College Avenue Computing Center for three semesters. He started with us as a consultant two and a half years ago. Arlind's experience and good judgment have benefited the lab time and time again. He has handled many unexpected situations in the lab this semester. In each case, he has taken control of the situation and kept everyone involved calm. During staff meetings, Arlind shares his opinions openly and honestly. He is careful to focus on developing solutions in a constructive manner. Arlind is professional and pleasant to work with. When helping peers, patrons, or consultants, he does not turn away questions and will exhaust all possible avenues to find a good solution. (Just yesterday, a professor came to the lab looking specifically for Arlind because "he'd always been so helpful!") One of Arlind's primary responsibilities is overseeing the repair and maintenance of about 300 machines and 16 printers on the College Avenue campus. Arlind possesses a strong technical background, and we are lucky to have him share his expertise with us. He works closely with other repair staff and supervisors to make sure that issues are resolved as quickly as possible. Even in the middle of an already busy day, Arlind finds time to visit our four remote locations to check on the status of those labs. Arlind's keen sense of wit, approachable demeanor and great attitude have earned him this honor. Arlind has a strong work ethic and is one of the most dependable people we know. He has taken a proactively implements improvements when he can. Please join us in congratulating him on this achievement. {cb,mm}
