Four staff members recognized
When LBJ School staff and faculty members gathered on December 19 for a winter holiday celebration, they set a moment aside to salute four staff members whose names will be added to the LBJ Appreciation Award honor roll.

The winners of this year's award are Rosemary Foster, Carol Monette, Lori O'Neal, and Diane Tucker. Foster and O'Neal are members of the faculty support staff, Monette is an administrative associate with the Office of Conferences and Training, and Tucker is assistant director at the Ray Marshall Center for the Study of Human Resources.

The award, which was established in 1991 as part of the LBJ School's 20th anniversary celebration, honors staff members whose initiative, reliability, and attitude make life easier for others in the LBJ School. Only employees who work 20 hours per week or more, and who have been with the LBJ School for at least two years, are eligible.

University honors long-term employees
The university's 40th staff recognition program and president's reception was held at the Erwin Special Events Center in May to honor classified employees and administrative/professional employees with 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40 years of service.

LBJ School honorees include Barry Bales and Doug Marshall, 20 years; Chris King, Pamelia McGehee, and Caren Troutman, 15 years; and Martha Harrison and Deborah Warden, 10 years.

Associate Dean Leigh Boske, who has been a member of the faculty since 1977, was also honored for 10 years of university administrative service. As a UT Austin staff member, he has served as research associate, project director, and associate dean.

LBJ School centers demonstrate their generosity
Staff members at the Ray Marshall Center for the Study of Human Resources and the Governor's Center for Management Development achieved 100 percent participation in the university's Hearts of Texas drive this year. The drive is part of a larger effort called the State Employee Charitable Campaign, which is designed to help those in need.

According to Nancy McCowen, Hearts of Texas campaign co-chair, this year's university fund drive was a success, exceeding its goal for contributions.
