Congratulations to the 18 CEHS faculty and staff honored with the Parents' Recognition Award at a special reception on March 1. This award honors outstanding faculty and staff, and is organized by the Division of Student Affairs and co-sponsored by the UNL Teaching Council and UNL Parents Association.
The award provides positive feedback to campus faculty and staff about the work they do with students. It also encourages the goal of good student and faculty relationships and provides recognition in an area often overlooked in the formal rewards system.
The Parents Association solicits nominations through an annual mailing, asking parents to nominate a faculty or staff employee who has made a significant difference in their student’s life. Nominations include a short explanation of why this person was nominated. All who were nominated by at least one parent or student and who are still with the university received a certificate.
Below are the CEHS recipients, their departments, and the number of times they have been recognized with the award.
