Along with the new year comes the opportunity to select the first Employee of the Month for 2013. Is there someone you believe is deserving of this recognition? If someone comes to mind, please nominate him or her via e-mail Peggy Kilburg by Friday, Jan. 11, with a summary of this person’s recent contributions and any other information that makes this person deserving of this award. Because of the earlier community meeting this month, there will be no reminder ennouncement about submitting nominations.
The president, provost and vice presidents will select a recipient from among the nominees, and the winner will be honored with a citation and a $100 gift card to The Allison. We will honor both December’s and January’s employees of the month at our next community meeting scheduled for Jan. 17.
