Years of Service Recognition

CONGRATULATIONS!

Grateful for Your Service

Each year during the End of the Year Appreciation Event, Staff Council, in collaboration with the Office of the President, honors and recognizes our staff members for the service milestones of 5, 10, 20, and 30+ years of service to the university. The annual Years of Service Recognition Ceremony is part of a tradition of recognition and gratitude for our dedicated employees, whose accomplishments and outstanding work contribute to the success of our students, faculty, staff, and alumni at Cal Poly Humboldt. Congratulations to all the recipients!

Our ceremony is administered by Staff Council, who provides leadership and coordination of this important campus program. For more information about Staff Council or how to get involved, send us an email at staffcouncil@humboldt.edu!
