Help us to congratulate Savannah Millsap as the September, 2023 Student Employee of the Month!
Savannah has been working with the Department of Campus Recreation since August of 2022 and has spent the last year with our Marketing Department. She works on graphic design for flyers and social media posts, is our department photographer, and is the lead for the marketing street team.
Savannah is working on her degree in graphic design and has an anticipated graduation date of May 2025. She currently does not where her career will take her but is open to different paths and loves to do freelance work.
In her free time, Savannah enjoys traveling and visiting new places with her friends. Going thrifting and finding new restaurants to eat at is what she looks forward to doing on the weekends. Savannah enjoys working with Campus Recreation because of her amazing coworkers and friends she has made here. She also enjoys getting to use her creativity to work on flyers and posts and most recently short videos to promote our program. Savannah hopes over the next few years to continue to grow her portfolio and get a wide variety of projects to show for when she begins looking for full-time work.
August 2023 Employee of the Month - Savon Andrews
Congratulations to our August 2023, Employee of the Month, Savon Andrews!
Savon (Von) Andrews started working for SIUE Campus Recreation in the spring of 2023 as a member of the Intramural Sports crew. He quickly branched out into other roles that involved working as a turnstile greeter, and is now training as a Member Services attendant at the Reception Desk and Equipment Issue.
Recently, Von became the president of Club Baseball! Savon is truly a role model for Campus Recreation student employees! He is very flexible, always takes shifts even with very short notice and does a great job being a helping hand, not only to the Intramural Sports Coordinator, Imani Welch but to other pro staff as well! He is very passionate about helping others, enjoys watching competitive events and sharing the knowledge he has been taught to others.
Von anticipates completing a degree in psychology with a minor in criminal justice in May of 2024. Apart from classes and work, and his Club Baseball presidential duties, he enjoys listening to music, relaxing, walking his puppy and hanging out with friends. Von says that he wanted to make a change within himself, and he came to Campus Recreation hoping he could do so. His direct supervisor, Imani says, “I am very grateful to be a part of Von wanting to make a positive change within himself and the community.” Von was born and raised on the south side of Chicago, and he also served in the United Stated Army! Thank you for your service Von to our country and to the students of SIUE through Campus Recreation! We are very lucky to have Von on our team!
