Welcome, new colleagues & congrats, party prize winners

Celebrations, Faculty & Staff

May 17, 2021

The Welcome Party for New Employees held Apr. 26 during Common Time greeted 15 recently-hired colleagues (see photos below), and provided a wide range of games intended to help old timers learn about newbies, and vice versa.

The Welcome Party was hosted by the Celebrating Community Committee and President Posey.

Dr. Posey expressed thanks to everyone who participated and helped make the event special for new employees. She also congratulated the game prize winners who “know Cincinnati State well.”

If you missed the event, you can watch the recorded version, and enjoy the comedy stylings of MCs Geoff Woolf and Kathleen Pickens– but be aware that no game prizes will be provided while you watch.
