In recognition of the outstanding contributions of Rice staff members, the Rice University Staff Council has created the Rice Staff Excellence Award.
This new annual award celebrates the achievements of three full-time Rice staff members who exemplify the university’s core values of responsibility, integrity, community and excellence and make a positive impact to the Rice community. Nominations are due Feb. 9.
“Staff are such an integral part of our campus community, and I’m so proud of the Staff Council for leading the charge to bolster campuswide staff recognition,” said Petko Ivanov, Staff Council president. “We are incredibly grateful to Executive Vice President for Finance and Administration Kelly Fox and our colleagues in Human Resources for their support of our efforts.”
Award recipients will be announced by early April and will be recognized at the annual President’s Staff Recognition event, which is scheduled for April 18. Each recipient will receive a $1,000 monetary award after taxes in recognition of their service.
