This month, parents and visitors have been greeted at the main entrance by Aturina Halverson and should continue to use Raptor when visiting campus during the day.
by Susan Pearlman, administrative assistant to the director
Aturina Halverson joined USN on Monday, April 1 as the new 19th Avenue Lobby receptionist. She comes to us from Andrew Jackson’s Hermitage, where she worked in guest services. A fairly recent college graduate, she is also an artist and especially enjoys creating string art.
Heather Davis moves upstairs to the Edgehill Lobby, where she will greet visitors at the front door and continue to support the work of the Business Office. Catherine Lemaire Lozier has moved to a new position as the Hassenfeld Library assistant.
As a friendly reminder, USN uses Raptor as the visitor management system and it is located on the left side of the reception desk. Parents, vendors, and visitors on campus before 4 p.m. weekdays should check in and print off a name tag using Raptor. First-time visitors must use their drivers' licenses to be vetted through the security system.

Congratulations to the team on a great performance and to Lucas Lupu ’31, named an All Star for being the fifth-highest scorer nationwide.
