Elizabeth Van Scoyoc<\/a>\u00a0is one of five Administrative Services Specialists in the College of Computer & Information Technology department (CCIT). She works for Chrissy Risberg, the Academic Department Chair at the Tarpon Springs and Seminole Campuses for the CCIT department. Prior to working for the CCIT department, Van Scoyoc has worked in other capacities at the College. She started out as a federal work-study employee in the Tarpon Springs Campus Administration building, where she provided support in the following areas: The Business Office, Testing Center, Associate Provost Office, and Front Reception Desk. She worked her way up to Senior Administrative Services Assistant- an OPS position, where she provided tours to prospective students and their families and performed New Student Orientations alongside a colleague who is an advisor for the College. During the holiday season, she worked at the campus bookstore and as a proctor during mid-terms and finals-all at the Tarpon Springs Campus.<\/p>\n

One thing that all of these positions held in common were the interaction with students. \u201cI love interacting with people. I feel the experience gained while working in the Administration Building and other departments on campus has given me the knowledge and tools I need to address inquiries of instructors and students in my current position,\u201d Van Scoyoc said. She further stated that the best part of her job is having \u201can awesome boss\u201d who has helped her grow professionally in her new position.<\/p>\n

In her role as an Academic Services Specialist, her duties include: ensuring that classrooms are comfortable and equipment is working properly, addressing inquiries of students and instructors and working with other staff members in order to learn how to do her job in a more efficient manner. \u201cI want to help students to be successful in their classes. I encourage them to seek help from their instructors early in the course if they have any concerns,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Commenting on her personal contributions to the department, Van Scoyoc feels her job involves many great people who guide one another through the day-to-day functions of working in a public, academic environment; it is like \u201ca well-oiled machine with many parts that work together to get the job done. We are proud of what we do here at the College. We see the difference we make in students\u2019 lives-that\u2019s what it\u2019s all about!\u201d<\/p>\n

As a recent graduate from SPC with a Bachelor\u2019s Degree in Public Policy and Administration, Van Scoyoc received the highest honor awarded by SPC to a graduating senior-the Alumni Achievement Award. \u00a0She met the criteria by excelling academically, volunteering in her community at the C.A.P. Center, Tarpon Spring Elementary School and at numerous SPC\/Community functions. She was also a member of the Student Government Association (SGA) where she held the position of Secretary; she was also a member of Phi Theta Kappa-Alpha Zeta Tau (SGA Liaison), all while dealing with the responsibilities of being a single parent.<\/p>\n

With the suggestion of Instructor Jeff Kronschnabl, Van Scoyoc and 3 of her classmates applied for the Alumni Achievement Award. Once selected, each was interviewed by the Alumni Association Board. All candidates prepared remarks for graduation while awaiting the winner to be announced. \u201cGraduation was a wonderful experience that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
