Pride of Indiana is a regular feature in Inside IU that allows IU faculty and staff to recognize their colleagues for IU-related work they’ve done that goes above and beyond their job duties or responsibilities.
Submit a Pride of Indiana shout-out for a colleague who makes a difference in your department.
Thank you to the following IU employees:
IU Bloomington
Erica Moore, of the Center for Survey Research, whose nominator wrote: “Erica is a lifesaver! I’m so grateful for her awesome leadership in meeting an unexpected and highly challenging project need with excellent efficiency and effectiveness. She is a true professional, and I don’t know what we would have done without her this year. Rock on, Erica!!”
Derek Wietelman, of the Center for Survey Research, whose nominator wrote: “There are rare superstars in this world who are brilliant and a pure joy to work with. I’m privileged to work with one of them, and his name is Derek, SPEA graduate research assistant for the Center for Survey Research. His positive energy, enthusiasm and unfailing willingness to help no matter whatever we need at the center are awesome and inspiring. His attention to detail and technical skills are excellent, and if he doesn’t know how to do something, he’ll find a way to make it happen. Thank you for all you do, Derek – you rock!”
