The Anniversary Years of Service Awards recognize service milestones for both Support Staff and Academic Staff throughout their University career. Best practices guide us to recognize these anniversaries early and continuously. The 25-Year Long Service Award is celebrated as a separate event highlighting that special milestone.

Milestone Anniversaries Completed Between April 1, 2012 and March 31, 2013
