<p class="MsoNormal">Nominations for Distinguished Staff Awards will continue to be accepted through Friday February 9. The process is simple and most of the work will be done by the Physics Staff Advisory Committee. If you would like to nominate a member
of our staff for this award, please go to: <a href="https://physics.osu.edu/john-g.-whitcomb-distinguished-staff-award">
https://physics.osu.edu/john-g.-whitcomb-distinguished-staff-award</a> and fill out the form. The members of PSAC will work to get the supporting information once the nomination is submitted.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">At the moment we only have three persons nominated for these three awards. While that makes the job of the committee easier, it would be great if more of our deserving staff were considered for the award. Please go to the website and
read the instructions, then consider making a nomination.<o:p></o:p></p>
