Enjoy your retirement, Teri Schrimpf!
After 22 years of dedicated service, Teri Schrimpf, business intelligence analyst in the Office of Institutional Research, is embarking on a well-deserved retirement. Those of us who have worked directly with Teri – and there are many – know that she is a consummate professional, a hard-working, brilliant, meticulous member of our WMU team with an unwavering commitment to excellence. Teri’s keen analytical skills have certainly helped advance the University’s mission throughout her tenure. She’s also just a heck of a great person, always friendly and radiating positivity.
Teri is also very humble, which is why she is declining a retirement reception, but please feel free to send her your notes of congratulations and well wishes before her last day on Friday, Aug. 4.
