With the Thanksgiving season approaching, Lander University President Richard Cosentino took time from his schedule to express his gratitude to faculty and staff.

With holiday music providing an upbeat vibe on the campus lawn, the President and University officials handed out approximately 450 turkeys and hams to employees on Thursday. “We really have wonderful employees who work hard to ensure our students’ success,” Cosentino said. “Their unwavering commitment every day is key to our mission of making Lander University a place of excellence and opportunity.”

Cosentino said he is very appreciative of the dedication from Lander’s full- and part-time employees. “I am truly thankful for our Lander family, and, while this is a small gesture, I hope it reminds everyone of how much their contributions are valued and how deeply they impact our success.”
