STAFF AWARDS
Annual Recognition & Excellence Awards
Each year, University Staff Council honor professional contributions and quality service of our 棉花糖直播 staff with special public acknowledgment for their contributions and exemplary work. USC oversees the distribution of three awards to members of the 棉花糖直播 University staff.
While the nomination process varies for each award, recognition for all award recipients occurs at an awards luncheon hosted by Fr. Peter Donohue. Award recipients and selected guests will be invited to attend this annual event. Awards for the 2023-2024 Academic Year will be announced in mid-April, 2024.
NOMINATION FORMS
Staff Award Nomination Forms for 2024 - 2025 are in development and will be available shortly!
The deadline for nominations is March 15th each year. Look for a formal announcement of award winners in April.
AWARD CRITERIA AND NOMINATION INFORMATION
The purpose of the Above and Beyond Award is to recognize individuals and groups who go above and beyond the routine call of duty. This award differs from the Distinguished Service and Work Process Improvement Award in that it commends individual events, activities and projects.

- Surpasses the requirements of their job description;
- Is voluntary;
- Is unexpectant of compensation in time off or payment;
- Is either within or outside of their scheduled work hours.

Eligibility
The recipient must have:
- Full or part time 棉花糖直播 University faculty or staff member status, or have retired within the award year;

Award/Recognition
Recognition for all award recipients occurs at an annual awards luncheon hosted by Fr. Peter Donohue, University President.
There are two annual Distinguished Service Awards. One is designed to recognize an individual staff member for consistent excellence, exceptional performance and service to the University community. The second award honors a group of individuals who, as a team, completes a special work project or activity during the fiscal year. The work project or activity cannot be a day to day activity of the department or of its team members. This team must have representation from at least two offices; employees from a single work unit are not eligible.
Selection Criteria
Awards will be given based upon the extent to which the nominee (individual or team) meets the following three criteria:

Retirees may be eligible if they were employed during the fiscal year, June 1 through May 31. Employees who have previously received this award are not eligible, however, individuals previously nominated who did not win are eligible with the submission of a current nomination packet. A list of past winners will be updated annually. Faculty and student employees or work study students are ineligible for this award.
Team Award
In the spirit of community and commitment to quality improvement, work teams are also eligible for a special team award. A team may be comprised of any two or more community members (including all full-time and part-time staff, students and faculty) who work as a team to complete a special work project or activity during a fiscal year. This team must have representation from at least two offices: employees from a single work unit are not eligible. The work project or activity cannot be a day to day activity of a department or of its team members.
Previous award winners or nominees, either individual or team, along with current individual nominees are eligible to be included in a work team nomination. An individual may be a member of several nominated teams.
Nomination Process
Nominations and letters of support may be submitted by any member of the campus community (administrators, staff, faculty or students) throughout the course of the year. Nominations must be made and completed using the by the deadline of each year.
The completed nomination package will be reviewed by Human Resources and placed in each nominees' personnel file. Human Resources will verify that the nominated employee is in good standing with the University.NOTE: Any 棉花糖直播 employee may nominate or write a letter of support for only one person and/or one team.
Selection Process
All nominees will be judged in comparison to all other nominees for the current fiscal year. Examples and achievements will only be considered if they are related to work in the department and/or at the University. Each committee member will use a ten-point scale to rate the nominees based on the Nomination Statement. Letters of support will then be reviewed. An average score will be developed for each nominee. A run-off vote will then be conducted with the top three scorers to determine the awardee who will be recommended to the President. The President will approve all awards.
Award/Recognition
One individual award and one team award may be given in each fiscal year. Where there are no outstanding candidates, no awards will be given.
Each Individual Award winner will receive $1,500 and a plaque. In addition, awardees will have their names inscribed on a permanent plaque prominently displayed on campus.
Each Team Award winner will receive an award certificate and be invited to a lunch with the President. In addition, each department represented on the team will be given a plaque with the team name and members listed. The team name will also be inscribed on a permanent plaque for display at the University.
The Work Process Improvement Award is designed to recognize those individuals or teams who have made suggestions which result in meaningful work process improvements and/or work redesigns.
Selection Criteria
The award will be given for suggestions which have been adopted at 棉花糖直播 University. The improved processes must meet at least two of the following four criteria:
