UCF\u2019s annual Employee Honors Celebration thanked and congratulated more than 350 employees for choosing the university as their professional home and advancing UCF\u2019s impact as the University for<\/em> the Future.<\/p>\n

UCF honored employees for reaching 5, 10, 15, 25, 30, 35 and 40 years of service; recognized recent retirees; and presented the Florida TaxWatch Productivity Awards for saving or maximizing tax dollars and promoting innovation. UCF also debuted the inaugural Employee Excellence awards, which highlighted A&P, USPS and OPS-non-student employees who made exceptional contributions to the campus community.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday we get the opportunity to show you our gratitude and to celebrate the difference you make \u2014 every day of the year \u2014 at our university, in our community and in the lives of our students and their families,\u201d UCF President Alexander N. Cartwright said during the event. \u201cWe are so grateful that each of you chooses UCF as your professional home, and for the impact you have on our community every day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Past Founders\u2019 Day ceremonies celebrated the excellence 色花堂\u2019s students and faculty. This year, the university included the annual staff employee recognition event \u2014 previously known as the Knight Star Awards \u2014 to make Founders\u2019 Day a day-long celebration of all who contribute to the institution\u2019s growing excellence. And more than just the employee event offered something new.<\/p>\n

For instance, at the afternoon Faculty Honors Celebration, a surprise inaugural Champion of Student Success Award went to Paige Borden \u201995MBA \u201900EdD<\/strong>, UCF\u2019s chief analytics officer. The honor from the Division of Student Success and Well-Being recognizes a person, team, department or college for exemplary support of faculty and university-wide student success initiatives.<\/p>\n

Surprises at the employee event included the unveiling of the winners of the Employee Excellence Awards. More than 100 nominees came from members of the President\u2019s Cabinet, the provost\u2019s leadership team and college deans.<\/p>\n
