The Staff Council would like to say CONGRATULATIONS to Lori Rausch, Student Services Associate in the Department of Nutrition and Health Sciences, for being selected as the February recipient of our Staff Star Award!!

Some of the things Lori’s nominator said about her are:
· Lori has been one of the cornerstone administrative professionals in the Department of Nutrition & Health Sciences (NHS) for many years. Her patient and knowledgeable demeanor has been the smiling face of our department for ALL graduate students and many undergraduate students in CEHS. She welcomes students with smiles and compliments, and helps them find answers to the questions they have, and according to the students, makes them feel comfortable and "part of the family" of NHS and CEHS.
· She is the prototypical example of an employee who makes everything flow smoothly within the department by working hard in the background - and she never demands recognition or credit for all the work she does. Ultimately, her selflessness is one of the main reasons she is so deserving of the CEHS Staff Star Award. Lori has coordinated the graduate program during most of her time in NHS. She also serves as a liaison between the faculty and course requirements, curricula, bookstore needs, and student applications.
· Lori has so much experience and works so hard for our graduate program. She is invaluable and largely unrecognized for her monumental daily contributions.

So, if you get a chance, stop by room 110 in Ruth Leverton Hall and congratulate Lori. She is very deserving of this award!

Reminder: If you know of a staff member who you believe goes above and beyond their scope of duties, make sure and nominate them! Even if they do not receive the award the first time they are nominated…..they can be nominated over and over again until they do.
