CCS Heroes Week of 12/7/20
December 8, 2020Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, CCS has gone through a variety of changes. Moving to offer the option of remote learning, preparing campus with all the required safety measures, bringing our students, faculty and staff back to campus with confidence, and so much more, was (and still is) a massive undertaking. With all of the incredible and committed employees we have at CCS, it is no surprise that many have shined during this time of uncertainty and change.
Philip Brozik
Taubman Center Environmental Services Staff
Philip has always shown a quiet determination at his tasks and has always been a welcome presence on campus. As an essential worker, his daily visits and consideration for the essential staff of the Bookstore give everyone a good feeling knowing that there’s someone looking out for them and making sure they are taken care of. The Bookstore staff is in good hands with Phil and couldn’t imagine a day without him. When it comes to giving more, he is the man!

From the start of the pandemic, this team has been thinking two steps ahead. While many smaller and larger schools floundered during the pivot to online teaching platforms and secure remote office setups, they worked swiftly to support our school with both. They then worked tirelessly through the summer to ensure that classes could resume in a way that worked for our creative thinking students, faculty, and staff. They are friendly and helpful when you need a personal assist or troubleshooting and their problem solving throughout this time has been nothing less than heroic.
