2019 Outstanding Staff Award Nominees and Winners

Spring is a busy time for all of us but every year we come together to celebrate our accomplishments and to recognize one another. This year’s Spring Celebration was a different version from ones we had in the past. We were joined this year by President Ana Mari Cauce who spoke about the importance of professional staff on each of our campuses. President Ana Mari also took time to answer questions from staff ranging from legislative updates to the future of universal U-Pass for all employees.
