 March 2012

 

Delta State University Staff Council honors Joyce Skelton as employee of the month for March.

Joyce is currently an Administrative Secretary in the Office of Finance and Administration.  She is a native of Scott, MS, attended and graduated from Nugent Center High School of Benoit, MS.  I also attended and graduated from Mississippi Valley State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Office Administration.  Before coming to DSU, I worked with the Memphis City Schools system for approximately 19 years before returning home.  Upon my return, I worked a year at Kings Daughters hospital as a pharmacy tech before accepting a position at Delta and Pine Land Company.  After nine years of employment there, the company downsized and I was caught up in the transition and was let go.  I was fortunate and blessed to be hired at DSU.  I enjoy the work that I do and feel that in order to get any job done, we must learn to work together and become a team.  I work with a wonderful group of people and consider them my extended family.   I thank everyone who considers me worthy of this appreciation.
