  • Nominations Open: Spirit Awards

    Nominate outstanding colleagues for a UConn Spirit Award!

    The University of Connecticut established the UConn Spirit Awards to honor staff and faculty at our Storrs and regional campuses for stellar contributions and dedication to the mission and advancement of the University and our core values. The goals of the UConn Spirit Awards are to:

    • Build community within the University and University departments;
    • Provide an opportunity for employees to be recognized for their contributions to the University, which are not specifically academic but related to teamwork and civility; and
    • Create an event that acknowledges the efforts of all employees, especially staff members.

    Winners will be chosen for the following award categories: Rising Star, Unsung Hero, Team, University Citizen, Excellence in Inclusion and Behind the Scenes Award, which was added this year and designed to recognize a classified employee.

    Learn more and submit a nomination at spiritawards.uconn.edu. Nominations will be accepted through January 7.
