<p class="MsoNormal">Folks – They are extending the deadline for nominations for the Arts and Sciences Outstanding Staff Awards until this Friday (March 29). That probably means that if you send in a nomination, your nominee has a good chance of receiving
the award. This award is independent of the University and Department Distinguished Staff Awards.

<p class="MsoNormal">Sorry it is so long. They are asking for two letters of support as well. I can’t confirm, but I believe that the recipients get a cash award and an increase in their annual rate. It is worth it to take the time to acknowledge our wonderful
staff.<o:p></o:p></p>
