Appreciation Breakfast
Human Resources partnered with Public Information to host a Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast on February 6th to show appreciation for the employees who assisted with career fairs and community events in 2024. Each year, HR and Pub Info coordinate GUC volunteers to participate in approximately 45 career fairs and community events, not including ECU games where we also have representation.
