Robinson, his recent appointment to the position of chief of custodial services for CSUF is one achievement in a lone line of realized goals. Robinson, a man who believes in confronting situations head-on and taking advantage of opportunities, has been an underwriter for an insurance company, an air traffic controller, a karate instructor, a defensive driving instructor — and has spent two weeks a year for the past five years as a drill sergeant in Ft. Benning, Ga . and Ft. Jackson, S.C. These positions air in addition to the custodial job he held at a state facility in Santa Rosa. "It makes me feel good that r can get these things done," he says, citing psychologist. Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs —emphasizing self-esteem and self-respect — as his chief motivating factors. "It's a matter of utilizing what time I have, not sitting around watching TV all day." Another reason for his fervorous approach to learning might also stem from his earlier years, Robinson said. "I quit school in the eighth grade," he said of his youth in Houston. "It was the result of a lot of different things, but basically the situation at home wasn't conducive to learning. "I didn't know where I was1 going (after quitting.)

"After graduating, I worked as an underwriter for an insurance company. Then I got a job as a lead person (a custodial position) in Stanislaus. From there I moved to various jobs within the custodial area, then became a supervisor." Robinson's previous custodial stint before coming to Fresno was eight years with the University of the Pacific. "This is a very busy campus," he says, referring to enrollment. "A lot busier than UOP. Right now I'm getting used to the campus, facilities and employees. I'm also learning the state (CSU) procedures.There are basic similarities (between his CSUFand UOP positions), but there is a lot to learn when you change frota one system to another." Robinson agrees that the importance of custodians is often underestimated. "They would be sorely missed if not had," he said. "Custodians are a part of ing class. They perform an important task." Robinson scoffs at the that only "You get a lo/of different groups of people as custodians, — some quiet workers, some louder ones," he says. "Public relations — forming a rapport with others — is a tug part of the job, not just cleaning floors." ?
