On Thursday, April 16th, the students who were determined to be in the Top 10 list of nominees were invited to attend a Student Employee of the Year banquet. Students, their managers and several University officials were on-hand to acknowledge the many accomplishments of our student employees, campus-wide.
Five of the Top 10 were A&S Students. Brooke Kuerzi, Carlos Gutierrez, Will Hieronymous, Corrinne Elliott and Kyle Auger were recognized along with five students representing services across campus. Even though we didn't take home the grand prize, I felt honored to have such great representatives from A&S. If you see any of the students who were recognized with this honor, please share your congratulations for jobs well done!
