The Jan. 22 matchup between Colorado women's basketball and Oregon had some special guests in attendance - 2015 Chancellor’s Employees of the Year recipients Claire Figel, Amin Gheysar, Beth Kroger, Polly Pollard and Suzanne Stafford.
As part of their continuing partnership for employee recognition, Colorado Athletics and Boulder Campus Staff Council honored the Employee of the Year recipients with courtside seats, a VIP gameday package and a special center court halftime ceremony. The evening was also part of the Faculty and Staff Appreciation series, which includes discount ticket opportunities for all staff and faculty.
"It’s a great honor and I’m so happy to be here tonight," said Beth Kroger, when asked about the evening's events.
For the awardees at center court and the staff and faculty in the stands, the evening's program recognized the bond that develops over time when you put your best efforts forward for an institution that you believe in, and which believes in you. For all staff at CU-Boulder, Staff Council thanks you for making this a great place to learn and work. For those in attendance on Jan. 22, Staff Council also extends its thanks for participating in an event appreciating your contributions.
As noted by Claire Figel, "It’s really nice to be recognized for my hard work."
This event is a combined effort by Athletics, the Chancellor’s Office and Boulder Campus Staff Council. Staff Council would also like to thank Kyle Geddes from the Athletics Department and the women’s basketball team for their special efforts.
Staff Council’s Awards & Staff Recognition Committee works with sponsors of campuswide staff recognition programs, like this one, to assist with filling out applications, market the event, and recognize the outstanding work of staff. Let us know if you know of someone who has been an outstanding contributor to CU-Boulder. You do not need to be a member of Staff Council to work on our committee. Contact scouncil@colorado.edu.
