The OVC awards committee is calling for nominations for the Carlton L. Gyles OVC Support Staff Excellence Award.
The award is presented annually to the OVC staff member who exemplifies the qualities of University professor emeritus Carlton Gyles, including: being an exemplary role model; being thoughtful and compassionate, and being willing to accept responsibility that goes beyond their job function.
Please submit your recommendation for this award to the OVC Awards Committee c/o Elizabeth Lowenger by March 22.
Nominations can be made by any faculty or staff member, student or group in the college. The one- to two-page nomination should include the nominee’s name and contact information and the reason the nomination is being made. Up to three supporting letters from people aware of the nominee’s qualities and contributions can be included if desired.
All support staff members in any part of the OVC are eligible for the award. This includes administrative assistants, technical, secretarial or animal care support staff involved in support of the teaching, research, animal care or other activities in the college. A typical recipient might be a research technician or someone involved in support of teaching laboratories or of work in the clinics.
