Why It Pains Me To Be Late

Some of you know that my father was in the service; my grandfather too. With both these important influential men in my life I learn many lessons that most girls growing up don’t have the opportunity to learn. Some of them could be considered silly things like rain is actually liquid sunshine or never walk on the grass when the sidewalk leads the way. Two of these lessons are now part of my DNA … 1) if you are 5 minutes early you are 10 minutes late and 2) leave a place cleaner than you found it.

So this brings me to my point. Please leave the advising lounge cleaner than you found it.

We are absolutely thrilled that you use the advising space to collaborate, study and work. We worked hard to bring this space to you, so please respect the space.
