Nominations are open for the annual Classified Stars awards recognizing outstanding classified employees.

Supervisors need to submit nominations by 5 p.m. Aug. 10. Nominations can be made using a Qualtrics link.

The Classified Stars awards are presented by the Classified Staff Training and Development Advisory Committee in partnership with the Office of the President and Department of Intercollegiate Athletics. Employees are selected for their outstanding efforts and contributions to the UO mission.

Managers and supervisors are encouraged to nominate direct-report classified employees who go “above and beyond” in their work at the UO. The advisory committee will review nominations and select the recipients.

Five employees will receive the awards this year. They will receive two tickets to a Ducks home football game and will get to join President Michael Schill in his Autzen Stadium suite for the game.
