The UCSD 1994/95 Staff Employee of the Year Award Program

I am pleased to announce the nomination period for this year's Staff
Employee of the Year Award Program. The purpose of this program is to
recognize and celebrate the outstanding achievements and meritorious
service of our staff employees. Ten awards will be given: one award of
$1,000 for the "Outstanding Staff Employee" and nine awards of $500 for
"Exemplary Service." All ten awardees will have their names inscribed on
the perpetual plaque which is prominently displayed in the Human Resources
Department at Torrey Pines Center.

Any UCSD employee who has passed the probationary period may submit
nominations. A panel of nine, appointed by the Chancellor, Vice
Chancellors, and Director, will review all nominations and recommend
awardees to the Chancellor. Awards will be made by Chancellor Atkinson at
a special ceremony to be held in the spring.

This program allows employees to be acknowledged for special recognition
for their outstanding service and contributions. Its success depends on
your willingness to take the necessary time to initiate and/or endorse the
nomination of a staff employee whom you believe to be truly deserving of
an award. A nomination form is attached for your convenience.

Nominations will be received at the Campus Human Resources Department at
Torrey Pines Center South and the Medical Center Human Resources
Department. For full consideration, nominations must be received by
February 28, 1995. Electronic nominations will be considered provided all
nominating material and personal electronic endorsements from the
nominators are received by the deadline.

Please follow the guidelines below in preparing your nomination:

1. Nominees must have completed the six month probationary period.

2. Nominees must be a member of the UCSD A&PS or Staff Programs.

3. Each nomination must include a Principal Nominator and two
endorsements. Individuals may serve as a Principal Nominator for only
one nomination. However, a Principal Nominator may endorse other
nominations. All multiple nominations submitted by a single Principal
Nominator will be invalidated.

4. Only one employee per nomination form may be submitted.

5. In order to give all nominees adequate opportunity, length of narrative
statement should not exceed 300 words. Supplemental materials will not
be considered.

6. Satisfactory performance of all assigned job duties is insufficient
criteria to be considered for an award. Nominees should demonstrate
exemplary performance of work related responsibilities at UCSD. For
example, if the employee is representing the University in community
service activities, these efforts would qualify as work related.
Nominations without supporting statements will not be considered.

7. The names of nominators will not be revealed and nominating materials
will not be returned.

Please submit nominations by February 28, 1995. Award recipients will be
announced in mid-March.
