CIE staff members recognized with Service Awards - UPDATED 7/20/10

May 6, 2010

On May 6, 2010, Continuing and Innovative Education (CIE) honored 20 of its long-term team members with a framed Service Award from The University of Texas at Austin. This year’s recipients were recognized in the presence of their invited guests, co-workers and supervisors at a reception in the Legend’s Room of the Etter-Harbin Alumni Center

The Service Award recognizes individual staff member’s length of service at the university, beginning with 10 years of employment and then proceeding with each additional 5 years of service. This year’s recipients represent 295 collective years of service to the university.

“There is no more valuable resource in Continuing and Innovative Education than the commitment and experience of our colleagues who have invested in this organization and helped it respond over the years to meet the needs of our students and our university,” said Dean Judy Ashcroft.  “I am so pleased to honor these individuals who are not only colleagues but also friends of many years. They are our super stars, and their walk down the red carpet has been earned many times over.”
