Nominations sought for CSSAC Excellence Award

The Campus Support Staff Advisory Committee is accepting nominations for the CSSAC Excellence Award, which recognizes support and service staff from the West Lafayette and Indianapolis locations.

The annual award was created to recognize a benefits-eligible support staff member and service staff member with at least three years of consecutive service at the university who demonstrate excellence by:

  • Consistently going above and beyond job requirements
  • Demonstrating exemplary conduct and leadership skills
  • Providing exemplary customer service
  • Showing initiative

The award consists of a plaque and a $1,500 honorarium that is subject to tax withholdings. Nominations must be submitted online by March 31. Any member of the Purdue community outside of the selection committee can submit nominations for the award.

CSSAC members and op-tech staff are not eligible for the award. More information about award eligibility and the selection process can be found on the CSSAC Excellence Award webpage.

Questions about the award or nomination process can be directed to the CSSAC professional development subcommittee at cssacpd@purdue.edu.
