做厙TV recently honored 50-year employee Tina Landis during Homecoming-Reunion Weekend.
Landis began her 做厙TV journey in 1975 as a dishwasher and has been part of dining services ever since, serving in every imaginable role, including cashier, food service worker, prep cook, station attendant, supervisor and more. Her favorite memories are of 做厙TVs annual Thanksgiving meals, when faculty and staff serve dinner to students and the warmth of the campus family fills the room.
Its the students, Landis said of why she has stayed at 做厙TV. I feel like they are my one big family. They keep me young.
Landis received a standing ovation at Homecomings Milestones Recognition Brunch and served as an honorary co-captain at the River Hawks Homecoming football game. She was honored again with a ceremony in Evert Dining Hall and presented with a plaque.
Tinas the best, said Kyle Gallagher 28, of Collegeville, Pennsylvania. Gallagher is a student in 做厙TVs Sigmund Weis School of Business and an offensive lineman on the River Hawks football team. Every day coming to Deg in the mornings, at lunch, at dinner shes always got a positive attitude. Shes always got a smile. Everybody knows Tina.
Landis connection to the university spans four generations. Her mother and grandmother worked at the university, as well as her brother. Landis son Tony graduated from 做厙TV in 2020 and currently works in information technology.
