| I have many different secretarial job tasks but the one I enjoy most is sharing with students, parents, instructors, and anyone else who will listen about why TRiO Student Support Services (sSs) is such a wonderful program. It is always a good day when an sSs student puts on his or her cap and gown knowing how much effort and energy it took to achieve that goal. |
