Student employees are encouraged to nominate their supervisor for the Outstanding Supervisor Award. Further, staff and faculty members are encouraged to nominate their department, themselves (as a supervisor of student employees), or a colleague (as a supervisor of student employees) for the Flashes GROW Award.
Online nominations must be submitted by 11:59pm on Friday, February 21, 2025. The nomination forms will open on Monday, February 3, 2025. Each nominee (and their nominator) will be notified of their nomination by Monday, March 3, 2025. Each Finalist and their supervisor will be notified by Monday, March 17, 2025. The winner and four finalists for each award will be announced during Student Employee Appreciation Week (April 6-12, 2025).
