Shout out to Brenda Torres who serves, supports and guides our PROMISE students, and makes it work with limited resources and staffing!

Shout out to Jessica Dolfo, who serves and supports Umoja, Puente and HUBU, and whose commitment to justice and equity is unparalleled!

Shout out to Daniel Vasquez, who even without a Dean, continues to serve equity efforts on campus!

A loud WOOT for Temmy Najimy, who quietly, but efficiently and effectively keeps the engine running at the school of information and learning technology - and always does it with a smile.

A double WOOT for Angela Testado, who is so knowledgeable about curriculum, and gracious about sharing that knowledge. Truly, I don't think City could function without you!

So many more...thank you all!

Yvonne, you are amazing and so helpful, even when you are busy you stop what you're doing to help us when we ask for it. EC tutors, I don't know what we would do without your help, especially Claudia López who is my #1 girl at the English Center!

I don't know where to start - thank you for all the work that goes into making this school a great place for faculty and students to spend our days.  The folks in facilities and garden staff are STELLAR in the face of all that they have to do, and do their work with a smile!  Our gardens are so beautiful! From duplicating to the dedicated folks in business services, we are so lucky to work with this amazing team.  And, a huge shout out to Zenia, who is keeping the sciences running while we look for a new dean.  And, Angela who is the backbone of the Curriculum Committee - what would we do without you? Thank you to all the classified professionals who are there for our students and faculty every day.

Our classified seriously rock, but Neary is the glue that holds our School together. I am so grateful for her. She works harder than anyone I know (even when she is supposed to be resting!). She is always willing to help, always wears a beautiful smile, and also dresses very fashionably!! Neary is the cutest! I sure miss hanging out with her in the office. Love you, Near-Dear!

Dora is more than a boss. She is more like family. She takes care of her "people" and goes the extra mile to hear them out and find solutions to almost everyone's problems. She truly cares about our students’ education and wants to help them succeed.

Dora is a force to be reckoned with. She isn't afraid to do what needs to be done for the students, and she advocates for her staff as well. She is a strong leader and she is definitely a valuable member of Enrollment Services and of City College.

She has created a working environment that invites everyone to work together as a team and get the job done. All while having fun doing the job.

She is a great human being, an inspiration, and a cool boss. I can’t imagine City College without her!
Thank you, Dora, for always being YOU.

With love from your Enrollment Services team!

Since even *before* my first day of work at City College, Neary has helped me navigate tasks and problems, whether big or small, with a huge smile, an infectious laugh, and a willingness to always (ALWAYS!) go above and beyond. She reliably knows the answer to every question that I have - or if she doesn’t, she knows who will, and although she is always so busy, she always makes time to guide me. She is organized, dependable, and consistently kind. I love my job as much as I do in part because Neary makes things easier for all of us in our School.
Thank you, Neary, for all you've done, and all you do!!

A special thank you to Neary Sim for your 20 years of service to the department. I appreciate your continuous problem-solving and solution focused approach to the many speed bumps and unexpected obstacles encountered each semester. Your consistency, kindness, spunkiness, and friendliness is always such a pleasure to experience. Thank you for the endless help you have provided me over the years. You are a blessing in my life.

Or, if not she knows how to find the answer. I don't know anyone with more patience than Neary. She processes all of the child development NANCE paperwork. During COVID this has been very very time consuming with teachers needed to re-do, re-do and re-do until the information and signatures all show up properly. Not having an in-person Neary was really missed!
Her organization is spectacular. Need a copy of something? It's in one of her clearly organized and labeled marked binders.
And then there are the much appreciated reminders to help not miss deadlines.
Even when she needs to get on my case about something I should know how to do by now I know she will be there with a ready smile and helping hand. I am so grateful to have Neary as my dean's Administrative Assistant!  You are the gold at the end of our rainbow!

Think about someone with high energy, a bright smile, contagious laugh, and always first to volunteer to help and you are thinking about my amazing Administrative Assistant and friend of over 20 years, Neary Sim.  Why do I say she is amazing? Well, her work ethic is outstanding, she almost never misses work, always meets deadlines, and I even think she reads my mind. Neary enthusiastically and energetically tackles the duties of her job every day and tirelessly works on many projects at the same time. She completes her work quickly (in between interruptions) and is a whiz at Excel and PeopleSoft!  Neary has been a consistent and dependable resource for faculty in this school and I know they highly respect her, enjoy her personality, and appreciate that she is always willing to help.
