The Office of Conference Services would like to recognize the seniors on our staff, not only for their hard work, dedication and contribution to our efforts but also for their academic accomplishment. You have studied throughout the night; worked on countless papers and projects; sweated over exams; laughed, cried and everything in between. To this we say congratulations and a hearty thank you! You made it! You are a Georgia Institute of Technology graduate!
We celebrate you and appreciate everything you have contributed to make our office a success. We hope your time working with us has been as beneficial to you as it has been to us. We wish you health, happiness, blessings and every good thing.
Peyton Cockrell
Major: Computer Science
What I learned working with conference services: I learned flexibility, clear communication, and time/resource management. A lot of situations require quick thinking about how to ensure every issue is handled within the best possible time frame, and this requires me to communicate with others what to do and being flexible with my time and resources.
Other Involvement at Georgia Tech: I was a member of IEEE and worked a year with Epic Intentions.
Favorite Georgia Tech Memory: My first day in my freshman dorm. I met most of my college friends within the first week, but the first day really sticks out as what set everything in motion.
Advice to Incoming First-Year Students: Take your time in college. A lot of people emphasize the whole "get out in 4 years" because that's standard, but it is perfectly fine to go extra semesters for the sake of your own mental well-being.
