With the move to North Hall, however, he has shown exceptional service and professionalism. He has been consistently receptive, helpful, patient, creative in finding solutions, and proactive in understanding what users need. We are very lucky to have him as a face of NMC.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kudos to Kevin Avery, Ed Bailey, Jim Bensley, Joan Berg, Ryan Bernstein, Lisa Blackford, Betsy Boris, Mary Burget, Kevin D&#8217;Alessandro, Ashley Darga, Mark DeLonge, Dani Garcia, Dominic Garzonio, Tom Gordon, Nancy Gray, Mark Holley, Robb Houston, Kari Kahler, Candra Kolodziej, Chris Kuchuris, Alissia Lingaur, Janet Lively, Deb Maison, Brian Majerczyk, Regis McCord, Mella McCormick, Kristy McDonald, Mindy Morton, Dianne Owens, Nancy Parshall, Deb Pharo, Michelle Poertner, Sean Ruane, Kristen Salathiel, Shilo Smith, Melissa Sprenkle, John Sullivan, Michael Torre, Sarah Wangler, Anthony Weber, Ryan Wilson:\u00a0<\/strong>Together this group of faculty saved students over $167,000 in textbook costs this semester by using\u00a0free\/low cost textbooks.
