Walk the Talk Award nominations due March 4

Faculty and staff are invited to nominate a colleague or student who "walks the talk" in his or her commitment to personal integrity and ethical practices at the University for the annual Walk the Talk Award. The deadline for nominations is March 4.

The award was established in 2014 by the Office of the Vice President for Ethics and Compliance to recognize the importance of those members of the University community who exhibit the characteristics prescribed in Purdue's Statement of Integrity and Code of Conduct (www.purdue.edu/purdue/about/integrity_statement.html). Nominees should exemplify strong ethical character in their dealings with others, champion ethical practices or programs, or apply personal values in a manner that demonstrates integrity and high standards of excellence.

All faculty and staff who have been employed by the University on any campus for at least one year are eligible. Students enrolled for at least one year are also eligible for nomination. The nomination form is available at www.purdue.edu/ethics/walkthetalk.

Questions about the award or nomination process may be address to Debbie Luedtke, administrative assistant in the Office of the Vice President for Ethics and Compliance, at dpmcdani@purdue.edu or 49-46373.
