The staff longevity awards program and picnic have been combined this year and will be on Thursday, May 17. Get your tickets soon before they sell out. The purpose of this award is to recognize university staff who have provided outstanding service to students, anywhere in the UA system, including rural campuses and extended sites. All full time Classified and APT staff employed by the University of Alaska anywhere in the university system are eligible to be nominated. Service to students may include service as part of the job or volunteer service, either directly to students or behind the scenes.
All nominees receive a certificate of nomination.
The Make Students Count Awards were established in the spring of 1999 to honor Classified and APT staff who have served students in an outstanding manner. In 2000, three awards were presented. The Chancellor's Recognition Award recognizes an outstanding staff member for service that is work related or a public relations effort that is noteworthy. Any staff member regardless of employment status at UAF is eligible for this award.
