2020 USM Board of Regents Staff Awards

It is time to nominate a colleague for the 2020 University System of Maryland Board of Regents (BOR) Staff Awards.

This award is the highest honor bestowed upon non-exempt and exempt employees with at least 5 years of experience with the University System of Maryland.

The system-wide awards offer recognition in the following categories:

  • exceptional contribution to the institution and/or unit to which the person belongs
  • outstanding service to students in an academic or residential environment
  • extraordinary public service to the university or greater community
  • effectiveness and efficiency in academic or administration transformation
  • inclusion, multiculturalism, and social justice

Nominating a deserving colleague is as easy as 1-2-3!

  1. Fill out the nomination form found on the TUSS (Towson University Staff Senate) webpage (www.towson.edu/about/administration/TUSC/html).
  2. Include a nomination letter, position description, and one recommendation letter.
  3. Submit your nomination to your divisional vice president which will then be forwarded to Jennifer Morrow (jgmorrow@towson.edu) in the Office of Human Resources.

A maximum of 10 finalists (five exempt and five non-exempt employees from each of the five categories above) from TU will be selected by the TUSS Board of Regents Staff Awards Committee to complete a final submission with two additional recommendation letters and optional supporting material.  TU finalists will then be forwarded to the Selection Committee for the System for final consideration. All TU finalists will also be honored by President Schatzel with a $1000 stipend.

Congratulations to last year’s system wide winner, Jayne French! During the summer 2019, the BOR announced the system wide winners and each winner received a $2000 stipend, a recognition plaque, and publicity of their honor.

Please contact Deniz Erman (derman@towson.edu) with any questions.
