Although students were away on Spring Break, learning didnt stop at Kansas City Kansas Community College this week.

More than 100 staff members were treated to life skills and lifetime lessons in an inspirational hour-long Staff Senate program presented by Mary Bichelmeyer Lucas, the Chief Resource Officer for Staff Mark, one of the nations largest and most successful staff companies.

Lucas is also the author of the highly-acclaimed book, Lunchmeat & Life Lessons: Sharing a Butchers Wisdom, which debuted in 2006 and now is in its 10th printing.

One of 10 children of Mary and John Bichelmeyer, Lucas recounted many of the lessons learned from her father as the successful owner of Bichelmeyer Meats in Kansas City, Kan.

Some of those lessons:

Other members of the committee for the personal development program were Maggie McCoy, Assistant Director and Transition Specialist in the Nursing Division; Lori Chaffin, Administrative Assistant to the Dean of the Technical Education Center; and Doris Holleman, Director of the Campus Child Care Center.
