Sharing a workplace with a significant other may be challenging for some, but not for Jeremy and Elecia Hadley. The married couple have working together in Mouton hall for almost two years now. While they were still engaged, Jeremy moved to New Mexico to fill the position of the bursar at SFUAD, and rented a house for three months before Elecia moved down as well. The couple then briefly returned to Indiana for their wedding before settling into their new home. Elecia briefly considered a job at the University of New Mexico before SFUAD came through with an offer for her, and she became an academic advisor. This meant she would be working down the hall from her husband, a situation they both enjoy greatly. “We’re best friends too,” Jeremy says. He admits that he and Elecia love getting to see each other throughout the day, despite the fact they cannot seem to stop talking about work well after they have both gone home. Nonetheless, the couple has the ability to keep their home and work lives separate and feel that their constant communication is beneficial for their jobs as well. “As soon as a balance is cleared, I know about it,” Elecia says. “I know they can register.

Students should check and see if they have a hold on their accounts. If there is a hold on an account, the student should talk to Jeremy Hadley, school cashier. Look over the courses being offered before the registration date. Students should look at their degree audits to make educated choices when picking classes. Degree audits can be accessed through the student portal under the registration tab. Take the recommended classes. Stick to the plan; it was put in place for a reason. During the week of registration, there will be a sign-up sheet for students wanting to meet with the advisors, however space and time is limited. Students who attend the workshops will have a better understanding of their education goals and the classes they need to take. Registration starts the week of Nov. 10; the senior class will be able to add classes on the Nov. 10, juniors on Nov. 11, sophomores on Nov. 12, and freshmen on Nov. 13  ...
