Celebrating Our Awesome Staff

Staff Caught Being Awesome

Beginning in March 2015, Staff Council began recognizing our campus staff members in a new way.  We launched our "Staff Caught Being Awesome" program to continue to honor and thank our hard-working staff.  Any Chico State staff employee is eligible to be nominated by any administrator, faculty, student, or staff peer.  Nominations are accepted from the first of each month through the last Wednesday of each month through Staff Council email.  Staff who are nominated are featured on our Staff Council Facebook page on the first working day of every month (except for July and August) and a picture of the staff member will be featured.  Staff who are "caught being awesome" also receive an appreciation certificate from the Staff Council Chair.

We hope you will "catch staff being awesome" and let us know about it!

November 2019 Winner of Staff Caught Being Awesome

Jennifer Aceves, Academic Scheduling and APDB Specialist, Academic Publications & Scheduling Services

Jennifer was nominated by five co-workers on campus, Shawn Christopherson, Kathy Johns, Mary Brownell, Heather Kilcoyne, and Clare Clifford.  The Administrative Support Coordinators in the College of Natural Sciences had a particularly challenging task this fall with their scheduling due to several departments in their college moving to the new science building.  Jennifer was supportive and spent a lot of time meeting with the ASC’s despite her busy schedule.  Described as giving her time and knowledge, but most of all she provides the tools for the ASC’s to be successful in their jobs.  She is also described as providing the utmost in customer service.  Join us in congratulating Jennifer for an outstanding commitment to supporting the staff here on campus!
