OXFORD, Miss. \u2013 Five staff members in the Division of Student Affairs<\/a> at the University of Mississippi have been honored for excellence in serving students during the 2017-18 academic year.<\/p>\n

The Core Values awards were established in 2015 to recognize employees who have shown characteristics of the division’s core values: Students First, Everyone Speaks, Embrace Differences and Lead with Learning. Each recipient received a trophy and monetary award at the end-of-the-year celebration in May.<\/p>\n

“Each spring, all current staff members and graduate assistants are eligible to submit nominations for their colleagues within the Division of Student Affairs,” said Merrill Magruder, assistant to the vice chancellor for student affairs. “The Core Values committee reviews these nominations and recommends award recipients to the office of the vice chancellor’s senior leadership team for final approval.”<\/p>\n
