“The
Hendrix Dining Services staff is so valued by our community,” said Dean of
Students Jim Wiltgen. “While they provide outstanding food, it is the customer
service, and love for our students, that truly sets them apart. They make everyone who walks in through their
doors feel like royalty.”
“The
theme days in the cafeteria create excitement and make dining at Hendrix even
more fun,” he said. “Students develop
such a strong relationship with our dining staff that they often invite dining
staff to their performances and sporting events. Even more amazing, the staff takes the time
to attend many of those events in support of our students.”
“I
can’t think of a more deserving group to be recognized. My deepest congratulations to director Mike
Flory and the entire dining staff,” said Wiltgen.
