Al's not a regular employee that can be easily replaced: he knows the law school and its events inside and out, and is often key to keeping things running smoothly. I coordinated Trial Techniques last year, and he was nearly indispensable: always willing to help, and always smiling while doing it. Plus, he's an all-round great guy. Don't lose him!

Al is awesome! He honestly makes the law school a happier and brighter place. Though I won't be here next year, it would be a pity to take the jovial spirit he brings to the law school away from the students. Keep Al at Emory Law!

Mr. Edwards is one of the sweetest, kindest, and most helpful people at Emory Law. He never hesitates to offer a reassuring word, and he is genuinely interested in the students' wellbeing. From a student's perspective, Mr. Edwards should be allowed to exercise his wishes and remain at Emory Law. He is universally known and respected by the students here, and has dedicated and invested time and energy building the reputation he deserves.

Mr. Edwards was one of the first individuals I befriended at Emory Law. Throughout my law school career, he has been one of my biggest supporters. His job at Emory Law goes beyond what was written in his employment contract. He is not only the man who helps to beautify and sanitize this building but a reminder to Black Law Students that we are exercising a privilege that we should never make light of. I pray that he is here to see me and the many other Black Law students walk across the stage.

As a first year student, Mr. Edwards introduced me to upperclassman to help me with any questions I had. He encourages all of the students on campus and maintains a professional, friendly relationship with us all. Mr. Edwards is a major part of the fabric at Emory Law.

It serves policy interests to keep staff that students are familiar with and have a good working relationship with in the building.

I would like him to stay until the end of the year. I really enjoy seeing him and speaking with him at school. He is apart of the Emory Law school family

Mr. Al is truly an asset to the Emory Law Community. He brings me warmth and excitement especially on the rough days. A smile is a gift and he managed to share one each time I see him. I would be deeply saddened if Mr. Al was to leave. He brings "life" to the law school environment so we need to keep him around.

Mr. Edward always gives great words of encouragement to me and other students around the law school. He also makes me smile when I'm stressed out. He is apart of the Emory Law School family. Loosing him and his presence will be a great loss to the building and the law school.

Mr. Edwards has also been supportive and encouraging to many Emory Law staff and others in our community. I am saddened by this news and hope Mr. Edwards can remain a member of this community.
