“Tim is not just a tremendous employee at the CRC, he is an outstanding person here and in the community. I am proud to know this young man and I am honored to nominate Tim Widing for the Campus Services Student Spotlight,” said Rod Bolden, Operations Manager, Campus Recreation.
“Tim has been in the CRC Operations department for the past two years. His service to the department has been exemplary. He has successfully been on two Shutdown Projects and has been selected to be a Team leader because of his result oriented insight and his ability to motivate even his own peers,” continued Bolden.
“On several occasions he has volunteered to come to the facility and handle difficult projects when no one was able to complete. In extreme weathered conditions, it was Tim who again volunteered to come and apply salt to sidewalks, walk ways, and post signs to ensure the safety of all patrons.
"He is surprising shy and quiet, but will not hesitate to lead a team or volunteer for a project with positive results and resolve. In Operations, we count on Tim on many projects and he has never disappointed us in any way. Always producing in the highest satisfaction manner, Tim has become our “finisher” because when he is in the building, tasks will be finished and it will be finished in a timely and professional manner. This young man is a true asset to the Georgia Tech community.”
