Today we’re celebrating Randi Johnson and 25 incredible years of service to UNT! 💚🎉

Please join me in congratulating LaShaundria Lawson (Assistant Director) for the DSA Supervisor of the Year award, and Steven Harris (Associate Director) for the Rodney Mitchell Eagle Spirit award. Both ODA staff members care so very deeply for our students, staff, and university. They are very deserving of the award. And, for those of us who knew Rodney, it is especially meaningful that Steven was selected for this award because there are so many similarities in the way they care for others and for UNT.

We are so proud to be part of the Division of Student Affairs as the entire room (hundreds of staff) ensured the applause was accessible in ASL!
