ETSU Staff Woman of the Year Award
A prestigious honor that recognizes one extraordinary staff woman on campus; nominators are asked to submit a nomination form and a narrative about their respective nominee in July of each year. The award recipient receives a cash award during the awards ceremony that is held in November of each year.
The ETSU Commission for Women Standing Committee first began accepting nominations for the ETSU Staff Woman of the Year Award in 2012.
Nominators are strongly encouraged to submit nominations for staff-classified women and to highlight the often unnoticed accomplishments of those women that have made a notable impact in the workplace and/or improved the quality of life for others. The nomination process is announced by an annual "seeking nominations" email that will be distributed in May. For more information on the ETSU Staff Woman of the Year Award, please contact the Women & Gender Resource Center at 423-439-5772.
