We celebrate staff in three separate, very special ceremonies:
University Human Resources
BEAR Day
The Service Awards celebration is an invitation-only luncheon hosted by President Paxson celebrating staff with 30 or more years of service.
The Excellence Awards celebration is an invitation-only breakfast honoring excellence award winners. This intimate celebration features senior leaders and nominators highlighting the accomplishments of individual and team winners.
All staff are invited for a ceremony and refreshments. With staff speaking and performing, student groups making cameo appearances, and live music, this truly upbeat, festive celebration of staff is not to be missed.
