Supervisor of the Year

We are excited to recognize the efforts of those working directly with our hourly student employees with the Student Employee Supervisor of the Year award. The goal of this award is to recognize the invaluable work of those in direct supervisory roles of hourly student employees. Acting as role models, mentors, coaches, and providing career readiness education outside the classroom. Student employees or colleagues may nominate supervisors who work with hourly student employees that they feel should be considered for the Student Employee Supervisor of the Year recognition.
