It was fun to see a little competition among the departments and committees in their efforts to donate the most creative prize basket.
The generosity of the following departments/committee is greatly appreciated: Athletics, Facilities (Housekeeping & Maintenance), Library, President’s Office, Safety Committee, Student Life, The Learning Commons.
The department to receive the most votes for the favorite basket was Facilities. They had donuts delivered last Thursday compliments of Human Resources.
Following is a list of the winners:
Thiel College Director of Facilities Mike Shultz wanted to say "thank you" to everyone who helped during last Thursday's campus cleanup. It made a huge difference in the look of the sidewalks, buildings and grass.
"We realize there is still a lot of repair needed to correct the damage done over the winter, but what a great start," said Schultz. "Thank you again for all of the help!"

The A Greater Cause Foundation was established by Kappa Sigma fraternity to support the charitable endeavors of the undergraduate chapters of the fraternity. The principal program of the A Greater Cause Foundation is Kappa Sigma’s Military Heroes Campaign.
