SIUE Faculty and Staff,

We are pleased to invite you to a celebration in YOUR honor! Please join us for the 2019 Faculty and Staff Appreciation Day: Beach Bash!

Wednesday, April 17, 2019
11 a.m.-1 p.m.
Morris University Center, Meridian Ballroom and patio
Free parking available in lots B and C, 10:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m.
Bring your Cougar ID to check-in and wear your nametag

A delicious lunch will be provided as well as entertainment, including tropical-themed games, a photo backdrop (to fool your friends as to your whereabouts), special musical offerings and plenty of fun as we celebrate the end of another successful academic year. You’re invited to wear floral shirts, flip flops, hats and other tropical apparel. SIUE gear and jeans are OK, too! We’ve also put in an order for tropical weather!

As always, many departments have generously donated great prizes for a random drawing, which will be on display by the entrance and announced following the event. You do not need to be present to win.

Additionally, during the week of April 8-13, the Cougar Store will be offering 25 percent off Cougar clothing that is not already on sale. As an added bonus, a limited edition, tropical design shirt will be available for purchase as well. Just present your Cougar ID to take advantage of the deal!

This year’s festivities will again include a photo montage of our departments; your help in providing photos for the montage is appreciated. Please submit photos to kschmal@siue.edu by March 29. These can be photos from departmental events during the past year or feel free to come up with something new and creative.

We hope you’ll take advantage of this opportunity to visit with us and your colleagues from all three campuses in a fun, relaxed, tropical atmosphere as we celebrate all you do for SIUE.

Warmest wishes,
Randy Pembrook
