Construction science staffer
receives Linda Todd Award

 

Lauded in recommendation letters as “an indispensible asset” and “a shining example of dedication and commitment to everything that encompasses the College of Architecture,” Shelley Smith, an administrative coordinator at Texas A&M’s Department of Construction Science, was honored with the Linda J. Todd Outstanding Support Staff Achievement Award.

“She goes above and beyond the call to make sure tasks are done right,” said Leslie Feigenbaum, assistant dean for academic affairs at the College of Architecture. “As members of the faculty and staff we appreciate Shelley’s dedication in helping the department be one of the best of its kind in the United States.”

Smith was instrumental, said George Eustace, senior lecturer and industry relations coordinator in the department, in the planning and execution of every departmental event; Smith also volunteered to assist at the university level with graduation event preparations.

“It is important to note that the planning for and participation in these events extended beyond the normal business hours of the office,” said Eustace. “She is reliable and can be depended on to do more than is expected.”

Smith received the award at the spring faculty/staff luncheon at the Langford Atrium Jan. 14 by Lou Tassinary, the college’s executive associate dean.

The award is named after Linda Todd, who worked in the Department of Architecture for more than 30 years.
