Finance and Administration
2012 Merit Awards



Congratulations to the 2012 Finance and Administration Merit Award finalists, who will be honored at the Seventh Annual Finance and Administration Employee Recognition Ceremony on May 16, 2012. The winner in each category will be announced at that event, and all Finance and Administration employees are invited to attend. The four finalists for each award are listed in alphabetical order below.

Customer Service
Awarded to a Finance and Administration employee who is an example to others, providing continual outstanding service to our customers—coworkers, supervisors, students, faculty, staff or the public. This employee goes above and beyond the call of duty to meet customers' needs.


Ketty Anglada, Services Department, PPD
Sandra Chambers, Parking Services, AAS
Jeff Dalton, Sheet Metal Shop, PPD
Gregg Hudson, Snelling Dining Commons, AAS


Newcomer
Awarded to a Finance and Administration employee who, despite lack of time on the job, has significantly contributed to the organizational mission and shown outstanding initiative, reliability and dedication to the University. (Nominees must have less than two years of continuous service with UGA.)

Jennifer Dunlop, Office of Sustainability, PPD
Jimmy Lipham, UGACard Services/Bulldog Bucks, AAS
Kim Phillips, Food Services Department, AAS
Ashley Quick, Services Department, PPD


Tough Dawg
Awarded to a Finance and Administration employee who has endured extraordinarily difficult workplace circumstances (overcoming obstacles or challenges) with grace, good humor, patience and exemplary job performance.

Cheylon Bradford, Parking Services, AAS
Cathy Brain, Administrative Services Division, AAS
Shelly Orozco-Marrs, The Village Summit, AAS
Chris Wilkins, Accounting Department, CD


Unsung Hero
Awarded to a Finance and Administration employee who works hard and does the job well, but seldom, if ever, is recognized publicly for his or her work. This person is continually both a real benefit to coworkers and a stable, dependable resource for Finance and Administration as a whole.

Celise Elder, Accounting Department, CD
Katherine Ingerson, Food Services Department, AAS
Vonnie Swain, University Budget Office, BD

Employees must be actively employed, benefit-eligible and have a minimum of two years of UGA service (with the exception of the Newcomer Award). Nominees for the Newcomer Award must have less than two years of service by the nomination deadline of March 30, 2012. Employees in contract positions (e.g., Finance and Administration senior staff) are not eligible. To be considered for an award, a nomination form must be submitted. Self-nominations are not accepted. A staff member may be nominated multiple times by different persons; however, each nomination should be unique and should not be merely a duplication of a previous nomination. Employees cannot receive an award in more than one category in the same year nor can they be a repeat winner in a category. Click here for a list of last year’s winners. No member of the Recognition Committee is eligible to receive an award during his/her year of committee service. Please note: the Employee Recognition Program is not related to the performance evaluation process nor to employee salary increases.

Selection
Nominations are reviewed and recipients are selected by the Finance and Administration Recognition Committee, a peer group of employees appointed by the Finance and Administration associate vice presidents with at least one representative from each of the Finance and Administration divisions. Finalists for the merit awards are advised of their nomination and category two weeks prior to the award ceremony, and award winners are announced at the May ceremony. Questions about the program may be directed to any member of the F&A Recognition Committee:
