The Goldilocks Philosophy

Duties Reach Far Beyond Printing

With the decrease in offset and black-and-white volume, the 15-person in-plant has been forced to lay off a full-time employee and eliminate student help.

In addition, the roles of all remaining employees have broadened beyond the in-plant. All of the mail room staff members, for example, are trained to work in the college’s receptionist area. Another employee who works in the bulk mail room has also been called upon to work in the president’s office doing dictation or answering phones. Other in-plant employees are involved in special events such as directing parking and even driving shuttle vehicles during commencement. Some have even volunteered to work in the kitchen.
