I was on Western Wake Campus for an appointment and needed to complete some work before heading back to Scott Northern Wake Campus. Jackie pulled me out of the mail room (where I was answering student emails), showed me around the library and offered me coffee and a quiet place to work. What a lovely, warm welcome!
