2013 Employee Recognition Season and Award of Merit Nominations

Rebecca Fortier     
Special Events Facilitator, Office of Special Programs

In early May, our office announced the beginning of the 2013 Employee Recognition season and the Award of Merit nominations. The UIC Award of Merit was established to provide a mechanism for the campus leadership to recognize, appreciate and honor its outstanding Civil Service and Academic Professional employees. Employees from units which report to University Administration are also eligible if they are based in Chicago. In 2013, a maximum of 30 awards will be given.  Recipients will receive a UIC Award of Merit memento and a $2,500 monetary award. 

Award of Merit, along with recipients of the CAPE Award, INSPIRE, Luminary, and WOW Awards, and those recognized for 25 years or more of service to UIC will be honored at the 2013 Employee Recognition Ceremony on Tuesday, November 5th at the UIC Forum. All employees are welcome to attend.
