Staff
Recognition Program Held for First Time in ULM History
The first ever Staff
Rewards and Recognition Program in
ULM
’s history was held on April 12 in Brown Auditorium. The program honored
more than 290 classified employees who have given five or more years of
service to the university. This event marked the first time the classified
employees have been honored in such a way.
"The employees
honored today have served the university for decades, and their experience
is invaluable as we move the university ahead,” President James Cofer
said. “I speak on behalf of the entire university when I say, 'Thank
you.'"
Dr. Nick Bruno, vice
president for Business Affairs, was on stage to present the employees with
their awards. The 15 employees recognized for their 30 years or more of
service received a rosewood desk clock and a lapel pin. Twenty-four
employees honored for 25 years or more of service received a
ULM
watch and a pin, and 50 employees honored for 20 years or more of service
received a plaque and a pin. In addition, the 51 employees honored for 15
years of service, the 72 honored for 10 years, and the 85 honored for 5
years all received a lapel pin and a certificate.
Those receiving honors
included secretaries, librarians, custodians, food service workers and
many others. President Cofer mentioned in his welcoming address that all
these positions are highly important to the success of the university, and
the administration wanted to ensure that these long-time employees are
recognized for their efforts and support. Annette
Murdock-Tangye, Training and Development Coordinator at
ULM
helped plan the event.
