March Employee Appreciation Recipient | |
|
Dave Coleman
Facilities Management
Dave was nominated for going above and beyond to support our partners in Real Estate! He worked diligently on a Friday evening to fix a grease interceptor issue at Runnin’ Rebel Plaza. To ensure the job was completed, he returned to campus the following morning to provide documentation and photo evidence to the Southern Nevada Health District. Thank you, Dave, for everything you do for the UNLV community.

Facilities Management Leadership Retreat | |
Facilities Management (FM) recently held its inaugural Leadership Retreat aimed at developing strategies for how FM can support Business Affairs’ strategic priorities and UNLV’s Top Tier 2.0 Mission. We hope everyone enjoyed the time spent learning and sharing as a team. | |
Active Shooter Training Reminder | |
|
Business Affairs is partnering with University Police Services (UPD) to administer active assailant training for our entire division. Through this training, we will learn how UPD officers respond when an active shooter is inside a building and the actions we can take if we find ourselves in this situation.
The virtual training will take place on July 28 from 10 - 11:30 a.m. via WebEx. Registration instructions will be provided in the calendar invitation soon.
If you cannot attend or want to learn more, UPD offers online resources:

Upgrading Your Digital Literacy | |
|
Picture-in-picture is coming to Google Meet for Chrome browsers. You will be able to see up to four video tiles of meeting attendees in a floating window on top of other applications. The feature will provide greater flexibility in combining people and content, allowing you to adjust the view in a way that best serves your meeting. For the full tutorial, visit the Google Workspace Updates blog.

“Thank you to the electricians and their supervisor, Harry Schiffman, for finding a break in our floor power and repairing it. What they did was tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack. There was a power source that was never connected in our quiet study area on the 3rd floor. They found the break on the 2nd floor and repaired it.”
