CHAIRWOMAN'S REMARKS - CHAIR YOO
Chair Yoo thanked everyone for attending. She then told the committee that IT staff received a
letter, as attached hereto, from intern Matt Flores, whose last day was August 7th. Mr. Torres
had the internship as a high-schooler then an incoming college freshman and discussed in his
letter how this internship changed his life. She asked members to take a moment to read through
the letter and she then thanked CIO Anthony McPhearson and the IT department for making this
opportunity available to this student and for making it such an amazing one. Mr. McPhearson
said IT Operations Manager Shanita Thompson is who managed our two interns and she has
been fantastic. He praised Ms. Thompson and IT staff for making sure the interns learned and
became part of the team, and for providing them the opportunity to worked under and be trained
by our PC technicians so they could learn what it means to work in IT. He said both interns
understood the technology and latched on to it quickly. He said staff was taken aback by the
letter from Mr. Flores, who, he noted, advised that he changed his major because of his
experience with DuPage County IT.
