  • Contributes significantly to a positive and collegial work environment
  • Promotes and models exceptional cross-divisional collaboration

Nominations will be reviewed by the Admin Council Chair and Vice Chair on a quarterly basis. Awardees will be announced at future staff community breakfasts and in Lafayette Today.

Nominate a colleague today!

The quarterly deadlines to submit nominations are 9/30, 12/31, 3/31, and 5/31.  (Please note an earlier than usual deadline in Q4 to accommodate end of year reporting schedules.)
