Just want to send a shout out to Curtis Smith this evening. He has removed all the old ceiling tiles and light fixtures in the East Building Courtyard and replaced them with new LED lighting and tiles. He also has painted every square inch of the metal ceiling tile supports! He started this project last week and is nearing completion. He has been working every day on this and it looks amazing. He has such a positive attitude and he might not realize it but he is setting a great example everyday with his work ethic.
