Southern Miss Gulf Coast Names 2011 Outstanding Staff Award Winners

The University of Southern Mississippi Gulf Coast presented the 2011 Outstanding Staff Awards to three staff members for the integral role they play in providing support to the university on the Gulf Coast.

The awards, presented at the Employee Appreciation Luncheon on Oct. 31, were given to (from left to right) Ron Groat of Campus Security, who received the Physical Plant/Security Award; Erin Hannah of Human Resources, who received the Support Staff Award; and Linda Jordan in the College of Business, who received the Administrative/Professional Staff Award.

The six-member committee selected winners who exhibit an exceptional commitment to teamwork, possess a superior commitment to continuous quality improvement and make contributions beyond those normally expected and required by job responsibilities. Award recipients, current full-time staff members with at least two full years of service, were selected based upon a nomination letter, two letters of support and a current job description.
