Thank you for being so pleasant and supportive while I was not at my best. Like many people I’m sure, it’s always been much easier for me to give assistance than ask for it and your kindness was much appreciated. I know this is your job and I’m saying thanks for doing it so well and thoughtfully.

I wanted to reach out and thank you for your encouragement and support during my journey at UMB. You were one of the most helpful and compassionate individuals I encountered. I wish I knew about the possibility of accommodations earlier in my graduate education. It never occurred to me that accommodations are not just extended testing time. If only all understood the challenges each of us face in the pursuit of education. Your kindness and professionalism will be forever appreciated.
