Alicia S.

Position: Assistant to Vice President for Administration & Finance

Hometown:  Fort Stockton, TX (West Texas)

How long have you been with Schreiner? Where were you prior? I have been at Schreiner since June 2000. Previously, I was in Colorado for 2 years where I was a Human Resource Director for Pioneer Health Care Center. Before that, I was a Payroll Officer for the City of Abilene, TX for 5 years.

   

What do you like best about Schreiner University? Excellent working conditions, a generous benefit package which includes sick leave, vacation, personal days, numerous holidays off, a competitive health insurance plan, the opportunity to participate in a retirement program (which Schreiner matches up to 6%) and the tuition remission for self and family members. There are so many positives about Schreiner! I like the opportunity of growth and education, either by attending college classes, the supervisory training sessions and the lectures. We have some of the best professors on campus. Every time I take a new class, I add that professor to my favorite list. Also, I love the Wellness Program and having 2 hours off during the week to exercise on campus.

What do you like best about your position at Schreiner?
First of all, I have a great Boss- Fred Gamble! We have a very supportive and professional team in the Administration and Finance Department as well as all around campus! I enjoy interacting with students, staff and faculty. It's all about the people!!

What Schreiner events do you enjoy?
We have so much talent at Schreiner! I enjoy the choir concerts, the plays, the lectures and coffee houses. I appreciate the opportunity to participate in the exercise classes that the recreation department puts on like yoga/pilates and aerobics.

Favorite food:
Chile rellenos and homemade flour tortillas (I am one of those who still knows how to make them).

Favorite books: The Purpose Driven Life. Of course, if I want to read a book about mystery, drama, murder, romance or to find a pattern for my life, it is all in the best seller - the Bible!!

Favorite vacation spot: Hawaii, which is where my husband and I went on our honeymoon. (I think it's time to make a new memory!)

What do you like to do during your weekends? Go for walks Saturday mornings and Church on Sundays. I like to relax and spend time with my husband and three daughters when they come home. One is a senior at Schreiner and lives on campus. One is at Lackland Air Force Base and one is at Abilene Christian.  When I can get away, I like to go to rummage sales with my mom and sisters, looking for old dishes and other stuff I can not do without.

Is there any particular advice you would give to students? Keep focused on why you are here (Schreiner)! Think about why you are here (on earth) - to learn God's pattern for you and to have a relationship with Him. Be righteous and love your fellow man. Do your best and make Schreiner proud!
