My many blessings in life include this man, Peter Feuille,
who hired and mentored me. As a mentor and campus leader, Pete had the courage to
challenge people not to accept good results. Instead, he pushed us to reach our
potential. Often, this meant that Pete gave us some tough love. The day the
campus informed Pete, my Director, that I would be granted tenure, he called me
in for the happy news. “Michael, I am pleased to inform you that you have been awarded
tenure. Now, you can stop running the low hurdles and start running the high
hurdles.” Did I like hearing this at the time? No. Did Pete make me step up my game?
I’ve been running like Forest Gump ever since that day. I love you, Pete.
Thanks and God bless you forever.
