Employee recognition is a vital part of USF. Recognizing and supporting the contributions of Faculty and Staff is a vital part of fulfilling the University鈥檚 mission. Through the USF Length of Service Recognition program, employees with continuous service in a regular line position at USF are eligible for gifts at each five year milestone.
This month, three OAS employees who have been working at USF for 35 or more years were recognized as part of that program. Thank you to these employees for the excellent work they have done during their time at the University.
