Campus ChampionDon Winnie and Shirley Shepard are much more than a janitor and cleaner to the residents of Hayes Hall. For the past 10 years, the conscientious and hard-working duo has served as surrogate parents and silent guardians. Their thoughtfulness will be displayed again on Halloween Day, when they continue their decade-old tradition of baking food and purchasing cider and candies for the students with money collected from bottle and can returns. Former Hayes Hall residents stay in touch with Don and Shirley years after they’ve left the hall. It’s difficult to forget these two champions, especially when they never stop thinking about the needs of others.
