Nominations for the 2011 Chancellor’s Staff Award are being accepted through Friday, May 13. This is the only campus award open exclusively to TCU staff in recognition of service, commitment, and dedication to the University.

 
Winner of the Chancellor’s Staff Award will be announced at the Opening Luncheon for faculty and staff on Friday, Aug. 19 in Daniel-Meyer Coliseum and receives $2,500. In addition, a color photograph of the recipient will join a gallery of past honorees in a place of honor on the third floor of Sadler Hall. Winners from each Vice Chancellor’s division, Brite Divinity School, and Athletics are also announced at the luncheon and receive $500 each.

 
There are many members of the staff who are unsung heroes, but in their own ways, make the machinery of the University work seamlessly. As you consider people to nominate, think of those not only in your workplace, but also those whose special contributions really make a difference. Do you have a favorite staff member in the BLUU, in the Business Office, in the Rec Center, or in Admission or Financial Aid? There are nearly 1,800 staff members working at TCU, all of whom make TCU’s culture of personal attention and service a reality.

 
Submissions are easy. Just click on the link http://www.chancellor.tcu.edu/award/nominationform.asp and submit your nomination. You may make multiple nominations, not limited to those in your division. Any fulltime or 3/4 time employee is eligible. The deadline for submissions is Friday, May 13.

 
Past winners are Gary Patterson (Athletics), Susan Adams (Campus Life), José Carpinteyro (Athletics), Margaret Kelly (Marketing & Communication), Ray Brown (Admission), Charlotte Hudspeth (nominated by Finance & Administration), Gay Boydston (University Advancement), Becky Roach (Academic Affairs) and Rev. John Butler (Student Affairs).
