A huge thank you to all of our #WorkerBears for ev A huge thank you to all of our #WorkerBears for everything they do to care for our University and students! Our next featured staff member is David Pelt, shipping and receiving clerk on the Macon campus and a 20-year Mercer employee. . WHAT HE DOES: "My duties are to receive shipments for the university from freight trucks (18-wheelers), UPS, FedEx, and any other courier or delivery. I distribute these items to the departments around campus and also ship out packages for departments to the delivery services. Any inquiries regarding these shipments are also directed to me." . WHAT HE LOVES MOST ABOUT HIS WORK: "I love that every day I get to go out and meet the wonderful people employed here. I also enjoy helping employees with shipments, be it getting a delivery to them quickly or tracking down a missing parcel. I really enjoy the mobility of the job and helping people!"
“I appreciate the opportunity to get to know stu “I appreciate the opportunity to get to know students, see them grow academically, mature, and achieve as students and as individuals. To me, succeeding as a teacher does require clear and effective delivery of information, but more importantly, it also requires a lot of mentoring and guidance for students who are exploring different options or are unsure about the direction of their future." -- Dr. Eimad Houry, professor of political science and chair of the international affairs program. . Swipe 👉 to see a photo of Dr. Houry during his college days, and get to know him through our #MUFacultyFlashback Q&A at https://den.mercer.edu.
