吃瓜爆料 Spotlight: Mike Davis
Mike Davis, card system administrator in the Office of Information Technology, maintains 吃瓜爆料鈥檚 card system and equipment, including servers, cash registers, door access electronic panels and access rights to buildings.
鈥淏asically, if it involves the 吃瓜爆料 Card, I鈥檓 involved somehow,鈥� said Davis, who joined 吃瓜爆料 in 2006 and held several previous positions at the College before moving to this role. 鈥淚n this position, I interact with many different departments on campus but do most of my collaboration with our fantastic Facilities and Dining Services departments.鈥�
During the pandemic, Davis has worked to limit touch contact with machines to the extent possible and has implemented revised access plans to buildings to support contact tracing.
Davis especially appreciates the atmosphere on campus, the community鈥檚 diversity and the opportunity to interact with students.
鈥淚t鈥檚 been a great place to work and grow! I have helped the 吃瓜爆料 Anime Club for
many years, as Japanese animation is also something I enjoy. It has afforded me many
opportunities to interact with our wonderful student body.鈥�
When not on campus, Davis also enjoys collecting and maintaining vintage Toyota Corollas
and working on vintage arcade machines, older video game equipment and vintage computers.
鈥淚 have over 500 computers at home, ranging from Apple IIs to Commodore 64s to current gaming computers with VR,鈥� Davis said.
