Deadline to submit nominations for staff, administrator awards is May 31
Time is running out to submit nominations for Support Staff and Administrator of the Year awards for the 2013-14 year. Nominations will be accepted through May 31.
Since this program was established in 1994 to recognize George Fox administrative and support staff members for their contributions, 48 employees have received this honor. There are two separate awards: Support Staff Member of the Year and Administrative Staff Member of the Year. Each recipient will be honored with a plaque and a check in the amount of $500 at our first community meeting for 2014-15 in August.
The executive team will make the selections from nominations received and recommendations of an ad hoc committee that includes last year’s awardees.
To be eligible, employees must meet the following criteria:
- .56FTE (usually 30 hours per week, nine months) or above
- Completion of at least three years of service by March 31
- Continuing in employment next year unless retiring, and
- Not a previous recipient of this award
A list of all support staff and administrators who meet the eligibility criteria was included in an April 21 email from Peggy Kilburg.
Employees can submit nominations by sending an email to Peggy Kilburg. You can nominate more than one person in each category; however, a separate email should be sent for each nomination. Questions you may want to consider as you make your nomination:
- How has this person encouraged or helped you, other employees, and/or students?
- What is it about this person’s job performance that impresses you?
- What have been this person’s unique contributions above and beyond assigned duties?
- How does this person demonstrate Christian commitment, loyalty to George Fox, and leadership skills at the university and in the broader community?
I hope you will take some time to consider your colleagues’ contributions this past year and nominate any you believe are deserving of this award.
Thank you!
Peggy Kilburg
