May - Catherine Bradford
First-Year Programs

Cathy accepted new job responsibilities in the fall, which were not as clearly articulated as they should have been. She has not only exceeded expectations and ensured that a new program designed to help recruit and retain first-year students is succeeding, but she has literally built the structure for the program in real time. She has done the work of at least two full-time employees, working 15-hour days and taking work home on the weekends to ensure that students, parents, and others in the KSU community are pleased with the new program. She has shown exceptional patience, a collaborative spirit, decision-making expertise, and a student-centered approach that everyone at KSU should embody. The success of this program is hers, and Cathy deserves to be honored for her commitment to KSU's mission. Super job, Catherine!

The Employee of the Month is supervised and awarded throughout the year by Staff Awards and Recognition Committee, made up of members of Staff Senate. Once a month, the nominations that have been gathered are put to a vote by the committee and the results determine the Employee of the month for that month (click here for the online submission form).

The Employee of the Month receives several awards, including a $100.00 check from the KSU Foundation, a $25.00 check from the KSU Bookstore, a framed certificate, a banner, and a parking space of their choice for the entire month.

In addition to the Staff Employee of the Month, the Staff Awards and Recognition Committee facilitates the voting for the annual general staff awards which are held annually at the Opening of School.
