Dana Stone received the University Staff Employee Appreciation Award for May at University of Wisconsin-Stout.
Stone, of Eau Claire, is office manager of the Advisement Center.
Her nomination states: “Dana takes ownership in the operation and effectiveness of the Advisement Center and supports the values of the university. Dana flawlessly coordinates the communication and scheduling of all new freshmen attending First Year Registration and Orientation. Her attitude toward our students is excellent, and she treats every student as she’d want to be treated. We appreciate her keeping our operation running smoothly.”
Chancellor Bob Meyer presents each winner with a certificate of recognition, a UW-Stout coffee mug and a check for $100.
All 2016-17 University Staff Employee Appreciation Award recipients recently were recognized during a university reception. Christopher Essick, of Menomonie, won the $350 annual prize drawing.
Students, faculty and staff may nominate a university staff member who demonstrates a commitment to excellence and the university community. The award, now in its 10th year, was established by a previous chancellor.
