Nicholas Bechen, computer and multimedia maintenance tech, was selected as the College of Dentistry's January recipient for the Silver "U" Award. This award is given to employees whose overall performance is above and beyond the scope of their position.
\n 
\nHis nominator said, "Nicholas is always striving to help us solve our computer problems. If he is unsure, he is immediately checking resources to help fix our problem. He communicates very well and listens to what our problems are and strives to communicate what we are experiencing to our level of understanding so we can have a better understanding of what happened and possibly why and how to fix it the next time around if we can."<\/p>\n

"He does quality work and can always solve our issues. He definitely knows when we are stressed or frustrated and works with us to make sure we understand and knows how to calm us down! Nicholas always is making sure he comes in a timely manner to help us as he knows how much we rely on our computers for our work. He is very personable and friendly. Thank you, Nicholas, for always being there to help and doing it in such an efficient and effective manner to help us do our jobs!"<\/p>\n

Congratulations, Nicholas! Thanks for all you do!
