The College of Arts & Humanities will honor USPS and A&P staff on March 28, from 9-11 am at the Student Union, Room 218C.
Awards will be presented to two USPS employees and one A&P employee for their outstanding work and contribution to their school, department or program, and to the College of Arts and Humanities. Additionally, employees who have reached significant anniversaries of employment will be recognized.
The first USPS Award will be in honor of the late Dr. David Vickers. The second USPS Award will be in honor of Dr. Bruce Whisler. They both were dedicated and outstanding faculty members of the College of Arts & Sciences and the College of Arts and Humanities. CAH will also be presenting an award to an A&P employee in honor of the late Tony Travaglini. Tony was an exceptional staff member of the college and gave his time and his expertise generously.
The awardees will each receive a $600 supplemental payment (less applicable taxes and benefits that are calculated by UCF Payroll Services).
