She has the “key” to retirement

    After 37 years, Rose Scholz of the Lock & key Department
    decided to retire. Her Supervisor, Rich Dries said: “She’s always
    put the college’s interest as her top priority.”
    He also indicated that he has worked with Ms. Scholz for the
    past 17 years. When asked, Ms. Scholz indicated that she had to
    deal with 15,000 different keys as well as about 3,000 different
    locks. She also indicated that there had been break-ins during
    her time here, “but at different times, and that it didn’t happen
    all of the time.”
    Upon asking her if people lose their keys a lot, she indicated:
    “often enough.” Her other job duties included: Review plans
    for Construction, strings of keys (for different levels), and
    Electronic Access System Keying Schemes.
    Ms. Scholzs’ hobbies upon retirement will be wood working,
    as well as continuing to take classes here at MATC (which she is
    currently doing). Her work here has been greatly appreciated.
