University of the Sciences in Philadelphia

University of the Sciences honored the service of its employees on Thursday, June 4, 2009, at an end-of-the-year reception to celebrate the completion of another academic year. In addition to recognizing employees with five or more years of service, University President Dr. Philip P. Gerbino handed out his President's Special Achievement Award.

 

Usually awarded to one person, Dr. Gerbino decided that since he could not make a clear distinction between two deserving nominations, he would break with tradition and present the President's Special Achievement Award to Vanessa Jones, an administrative coordinator in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, and Jerome Moore in Facilities Services.

The President's Special Achievement Award recognizes and rewards a member of the staff for outstanding service to the University and its mission. All non-faculty staff and administrators who have worked at the University for at least one year, and who have demonstrated superior performance on a consistent and sustained basis, and whose achievements in the past year have been significant are eligible.
