Harbinder Sohi, in the Multicultural Student Services Center, you have provided every student, staff member, faculty member, alumni, visitor and guest of the center with unconditional warmth and welcomeness, since the first day that you arrived on campus. You offer coffee, tea, water, cultural insight, a comfortable seat, encouraging philosophy, and the heart of a saint to everyone.  You are incredible, and everyone on campus should know.  Thank you for being a beacon of goodness, and doing so without the want of anything in return.
