Online parking
registration for faculty and staff
will begin the first week in May,
2009.
The process that was used last year will
continue to be used this year. This means
that those currently parking in gated lots
may be pre-approved and others will need to
register on the wait list.
If you are preapproved you will need to
select the 'renew' option from the parking
options list. If you wish to change parking
lots, you will need to renew your current
selection and then register on the wait list
for your preferred parking lot.
Current gated lot parkers who were not
pre-approved will need to select the Ungated
parking option and then register for their
preferred lot on the wait list. Wait list
assignments will be issued after online
registration closes and will be based on
employee pay grade.
Teaching fellows and teaching assistants may
register for faculty/staff ungated parking.
They must be listed as such in the
PeopleSoft HR system.
All other graduate students must register as
a student using the student MY
UH system.
If you have any questions you can e-mail us
at
parking@uh.edu or call ext
3-1097 and speak to a parking
representative.
Anyone that frequents Oberhotzer
Hall knows Annette Green because
when you walk in, you are greeted
with a smile and a �Hey baby how you
doing?� Annette Green, known to
students as �Momma Green� manages
the salad bar in O.B. and has given
dining in the residential halls a
new twist.
Momma Green is dedicated to making
students feel welcomed and keeping
them happy. Everyone knows that when
they see Momma Green, they have to
give her what she calls a �BAM� or a
hug.
�I gave myself the name Momma Green
so that the students would respect
me,� Green said. �And they do. They
know me as Momma Green on the scene.
I�m like their mother away from
home, but I let them know I�m here
to feed you not clean up after you.�
Momma Green honors the students when
it�s their birthday by singing happy
birthday, but she also reminds them
when they get out of line. To assist
her, she wears a whistle around her
neck.
�The whistle keeps them in line,�
Green said. �When they get out of
hand, I blow my whistle and say
order in the court! They get quiet
and I tell them that they are
getting out of hand and they need to
bring it back together. They do and
when I�m finished I say alright let
the party role on.�
The love and passion that Momma
Green has for the students is
evident. Reaching lost souls is what
she strives to do everyday. No
matter what is going on in her life,
Momma Green smiles anyway because
she believes that is what reaches
people.
�My goal everyday is the students
and making sure they are happy. I
feel that I have reached my goal
when I am able to put a smile on
their faces when they are not having
a good day.� said Green.
