CSUSB Recreational Sports is proud to announce Andi Okoh as the September Rock Star of the Month. Andi has been an amazing leader to Membership Services staff. She is a role model to other student employees and is truly dedicated to the success of the Rec Center. More over, she played a tremendous role this summer with the SOAR program and with coordinating our role in this huge orientation program for incoming freshman. She helped make sure that the incoming students' information was in the membership system in order to have easier access to the Student Rec Center. During her time with Rec Sports, she has become a membership software guru and assisted in the conversion for students who were using random pin codes to using student id numbers to access the facility. This has made it much easier for student members to remember their access codes, since it is now the same as their student ids. Great job Andi - I know the students thank you as well.
