After a few days at sea, Lauren wasn\u2019t feeling well, and she ordered a grilled cheese at the formal dining room. The waiter gave a quizzical look, then confirmed that the order would be possible. When the waiter removed the shiny silver lid for Lauren\u2019s dinner, there it sat: the most glorious hunk of cheddar cheese I\u2019ve ever seen. Fresh grill marks and all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Without melting to that level of cheesiness, I want to offer a sincere thank you to all of you who have read my posts over the years, who have asked thoughtful questions, and who have shared back your enthusiasm around all things student success. I also want to offer a thank you for those of you who have shared excitement for my transition into my new role as OSU\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/theuia.org\/\">University Innovation Alliance<\/a> Fellow. I\u2019m thrilled to have the opportunity to serve the OSU community in new and innovative ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the <em>The Success Kitchen <\/em>was first thought of, Marjorie proclaimed, \u201cWhat a boon!,\u201d now the tagline, and a boon it has been! Writing for, and collaborating with, you all has made me a better student success professional, and I am forever grateful. Luckily for me, this isn\u2019t really goodbye. I\u2019ll still brie around\u2014 now just in Kerr. As always, I would love to hear about the gouda things you are doing, the new and cheddar ways you are hoping to support students, and just generally the things stop you from feeling bleu. Let\u2019s grab a coffee?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cheers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chris<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Chris Gasser When I graduated with my Bachelor\u2019s, I celebrated by going on a cruise with my now wife, Lauren.
