Scenes from the 2007 Event
On
Our Own Time Staff Art Exhibit
The Awards for Excellence Steering Committee enjoys making the surprise visits
to announce the winners of the 2007 awards and being part
of the surprise patrol is always gratifying.

Richard Lower
Plumbing Shop Supervisor

Rick was reluctant to join the team when called upon at a campus facilities
meeting, but was very pleased to learn he was this year's first winner of the
Staff Awards for Excellence.

Charles Fellows
Lead Technical Systems Engineer
Lunar & Planetary Laboratory
Charles was distracted by the group of folks carrying cameras heading into the
foyer conference area during his meeting, but was pleasantly surprised by the
announcement of his award. Friends and family were also there with flowers
to congratulate him.

Claudia Miller
Secretary
Physics
The surprise patrol interrupted a department luncheon to announce Claudia's
award. She was moved to tears of happiness when she learned how much folks
appreciated all her hard work. The committee was even invited to partake
of the food and large cage in her honor.

Derek Masseth
Systems Programmer, Principal
CCIT - Computing Services
The surprise patrol had to take a moment to catch their breath after climbing
the stairs to this meeting, but Derek said he didn't have that excuse for how
breathless he was upon hearing he was a recipient of one of this year's awards.

Susie Bowers
Assistant Director of Outreach & Recruitment
Academic Affairs - College of Engineering
There was a large meeting going on in this very small room where Susie was very
surprised by the invading SAC team. Susie had made a birthday cake for one
of her committee persons and then found they committee presented her with
another cake in her honor.

Robin rushed right past the surprise patrol on her way to the 'meeting' that had

announced by her good friend Eva.

Nancy was told a birthday party had been
arranged - a month early! The real surprise however came when she was told
about her Award for Excellence.
