Superior Accomplishment Awards Program Kickoff

Charles E. Young, President

I am pleased to announce a call for nominations for the University of Florida’s Superior Accomplishment Awards Program. The purpose of the program, now in its 13th year, is to recognize faculty, Administrative and Professional (A&P), and University Support Personnel System (USPS) employees who have contributed outstanding service in their fields during the academic year of Aug. 1, 2000, to July 31, 2001.

Please don’t miss this chance to recognize those among us who make the extra effort to contribute. This year’s nomination period begins Sept. 15 and runs through Nov. 15, 2001.

Division-level winners each receive $200 along with a certificate of appreciation and memento coffee mug. Each division winner then is eligible to be selected for one of six university-level awards of $1,000 each or one of six $500 awards sponsored by The Gabor Agency (four awards) and HRH of Gainesville, Inc. (two awards).

For additional information about the Superior Accomplishment Awards Program, nomination criteria, nomination forms, or to contact your divisional committee chairperson, please see www.ups.ufl.edu/awards/superior.htm. The divisional award committees are responsible for the nomination processes and for winner selections in their divisions. Self-nominations are not accepted.

UF’s Superior Accomplishment Awards Program was developed to recognize deserving university employees and is coordinated by University Personnel Services. The success of this program depends on all of our participation as we seek to express appreciation for exceptional employees and their superior accomplishments. Thank you for your support of this program.
