In 1985, the College established an annual staff awards program to honor outstanding staff members. The winners of the award will receive a cash award and a framed certificate signed by the Dean.
In response to overwhelming requests, this year the College will also include awards recognizing excellence among all ranks of staff, including team members and supervisors. Feel free to nominate supervisors that have also demonstrated the criteria of excellence recognized by this award!
