SUBJECT:  1999-2000 Annual Service Awards Ceremony

It is my pleasure to announce that the 33rd Annual Service Awards Ceremony will be held on Tuesday, May 23, 2000 in the Price Center Ballroom. The Ceremony provides an opportunity for the campus community to acknowledge and recognize those UCSD employees who have achieved 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, and 35 years of service during the period of May 1, 1999 through April 30, 2000. This year we will recognize and celebrate four hundred and twenty-four UCSD employees.

The Ceremony will begin at 2:30 p.m. and will include presentation of Awards and Certificates of Appreciation to seventy-six employees who have completed 25, 30, and 35 years of service. The celebration will also include refreshments and music.

Vice Chancellors, Department Heads and Supervisors have been provided listings of the employees in their respective areas who will be recognized at the May 23 event. All supervisors should encourage their employees who are to be recognized to attend the Ceremony.

UCSD's continuing excellence is, in many respects, a reflection of the commitment and contributions of the valued members of the campus community who will be acknowledged at the Service Awards Ceremony.
