Thank you, Meredith

FIUTS says goodbye and good luck to our awesome Education Programs Assistant.

Meredith at FIUTS International Trivia

Last Friday was Meredith Stilwell's last day at FIUTS, and we're going to miss her! Meredith has been with FIUTS since September 2013 as the Education Programs Assistant, and also worked full-time this past summer on International Student Orientation. She'll be moving on to start an internship at PATH while she finishes her graduate degree at the Evans School. We wish her all the best as she continues to do great work in international education, health, and development!

In honor of her incredible work at FIUTS, we have made a Top Ten list for her:

1. Her unshakeable professional demeanor

2. Her persistent positive attitude

3. Her ability to relate easily to everyone, from work colleagues to university students to elementary school kids

4. She's calm and efficient, "like a tugboat" (says Tom)

5. The way she is always ready to help whenever needed - in addition to being a FIUTS staff member, she's been a volunteer homestay host and a Thanksgiving host too!

6. The perspectives she brought to FIUTS from her prior experiences working in Washington DC to coordinate study abroad programs and serving as a Peace Corps volunteer in Morocco

7. Her fresh fashion sense

Thank you for everything, Meredith, and we wish you all the best in the future. Keep in touch!
