UWG Staff Recognized

May 30, 2003

CARROLLTON, GA - The University of West Georgia recognized eight staff members with 2003 Divisional Awards of Excellence and Employee of the Year Awards at its annual Staff Appreciation Luncheon in May. Nominated by staff and faculty throughout the University and selected by committees appointed by the vice presidents of UWG’s four divisions, winners were chosen in two categories for each division: exempt (monthly paid) employees and non-exempt (bi-weekly paid) employees. Divisional award winners were (L-R) Lucretia Gibbs, Division of Academic Affairs; Doyle Folds and Danny Duke, Division of Business and Finance; Barbara Chowns and Cheri McDonald, Division of Student Services; Wendy Pledger and Eddie Rogers, Division of University Advancement; and (not pictured) Helen Chambers, Division of Academic Affairs.

In addition, two Employees of the Year were chosen for recognition from among the divisional award winners. Chambers was presented the Pat Hughes Employee of the Year Award in the exempt category, and Folds was named Employee of the Year in the non-exempt category. In reward for their exceptional work, the divisional winners each received a $100 supplement to their paychecks, and the Employees of the Year each received a $200 supplement and a reserved parking space for one year.
