Employee Recognition
Whenever you spot a faculty or staff colleague doing something special for you or others, please complete this brief nomination form.
Your nominee will receive the distinctive U Make a Difference lapel pin.
HR will coordinate with the senior staff member for the pin recipient’s area to distribute the pin along with the narrative from the nomination form.
Current staff and faculty members are eligible to receive pins, as are dining staff members who are employed by American Dining Creations. You also may nominate a small group of colleagues who worked together on something special. There is no limit on the number of pins a colleague can receive.
If you have questions or feedback, please contact HR at x6108.
