Seven faculty and staff members were recognized for “Extraordinary Dedication” at the employee Opening Day event September 2. From a pool of about 30 nominations, two were chosen from each collective bargaining unit (Non-Unit Professionals are considered with administrators), and one was chosen as the first annual “Campus Collaborator” — an award that was established this year to reflect the campus’s strategic emphasis on cross-department and cross-divisional collaboration. All received an engraved clock and were congratulated by the Vice Presidents of their areas. Winners were chosen by a committee made up of last year’s awardees.
