Human resources is now accepting nominations for the 2019 Outstanding Employee Awards to recognize and honor officers of administration and classified staff. Nominations will be accepted through Oct. 19.

The Office of Human Resources holds the annual employee recognition program to celebrate and acknowledge OAs and classified staff who demonstrate excellence on the job, exemplify the university mission, foster admiration among colleagues and model high-performance standards.

To be considered, nominees should exhibit on-the-job performance that builds community, promotes inclusivity, demonstrates leadership qualities and supports the university mission.
