Staff Advisory Council

Chancellor's Outstanding Staff Award

Funding has been allocated for four $2000 awards to be given to outstanding MU support staff members. These awards are intended to show appreciation for and recognition of individual staff contributions to the University.

One award will be given to a staff member in each of four staff sub-groups: administrative/professional, secretarial/clerical, technical/paraprofessional, and crafts/maintenance.  A committee made up of Staff Advisory Council members and staff-at-large will make the selections.  Full-time (75%+) campus staff (except Staff Advisory Council members) are eligible for nomination.

Any staff member (except Staff Advisory Council members), faculty member, or student at the University may submit nominations.  Awards will be presented at the Annual Staff Recognition Awards Ceremony.

Criteria for Nomination and Selection:
The awards will be given out to four support staff members who best reflect honor upon the University and the community through a combination of job performance, job-related personal qualities, relationship with their associates, and the ability to relate their work to the missions an values of the University.  PLEASE NOTE: employees of the Hospitals and Clinics are not eligible for these awards.  These employees should be nominated for the Hospitals and Clinics internal awards.
