Carolyn Gerber, Operations Coordinator for Olin Business School, is retiring Sept. 8 after nearly a quarter of a century at Washington University. Colleagues and friends gathered for a send-off breakfast Sept. 7 in her honor.

Gerber has been at Washington University since 1993 and with Olin since 2007. She has provided great support to both Operations and General Services.

“Many of you have benefited from the customer service Carolyn has provided over the years,” said Tim Rogan, Director of Facilities and Operations at Olin. “From planning events, scheduling rooms, keys, access control, telephones, housekeeping needs, safety issues, etc., Carolyn is truly a valuable employee, and we will be sorry to see her go.”

Gerber plans to spend more time with her young grandchildren in retirement.

Best wishes, Carolyn, from all your friends at Olin.

Simon Hall is under siege again this summer as construction crews surround the building from the top of the tower to the basement. Phase II of major renovations is underway with projects that include building six new classrooms, beautifying the tower, and creating a new entrance on the south side of the building.

Tim Rogan, director of facilities and operations, gives us a preview of the changes in the works at Simon in this video.
