CARES Award Call for Nominations

To the Campus Community:

I've often thought of our College as a kind and giving community. To celebrate these essential qualities, I encourage you to help me recognize individuals who best represent these important traits by nominating them for the annual Commendation and Recognition for Excellence in Service (CARES) award.

Think about the many folks around you—faculty and staff—with whom you regularly interact. I am confident that you know individuals who exhibit exceptional thoughtfulness and consideration during the course of the workday. Please take a moment to spotlight those who exemplify the qualities that brighten our day by nominating them for this recognition. All members of our campus community can submit a nomination, keeping in mind that some of our most worthy nominations have come from students.

The criteria for the CARES award, FAQs, and Honor Roll of past recipients, can be found on the Presidential Awards web page. Please submit your CARES award nominations by noon on Friday, May 9, 2025.
