Spotlight on Student Worker George Ebeid

When I first met George Ebeid of Tobyhanna, PA, he was a freshman and a little shy and nervous about working in Circulation Services.  I knew that if he was at all like his brothers who worked here before him, John and Peter, he would work out just fine.  That he did.  George loves to learn “new stuff” and he learns well.  He is very deliberate in his work and always accurate.  Working in customer service, he began to enjoy meeting and interacting with new people.  He learned to be himself and that helped him personally as well as in his job performance.  A most faithful worker, his attendance record is almost perfect!  You can always count on George to show up bright and early in the morning, ready to get to work.

George has studied hard and will receive his degree in Electrical Engineering.  He is a member of the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) Club.  Some of his hobbies include drawing, bird watching and programming.  He has spent the past two years working on programming a game in C++.  Of course he likes to read and his favorite book is George Orwell’s 1984.

George is in the process of job searching in the Philadelphia area.  After graduation, he plans to move there with his brother John.  After a few years of work experience, his plan is to go on to Grad school.  I see a bright future for him.  We wish him all the best!
