September is an exciting month for our college for many reasons. Why am I talking about September when it’s only May, you say? It’s my time to coordinate the recipients for Service Awards. My favorite time of year. No, really!
We count years of service from the first day of permanent employment. For instance, if you were an adjunct or hourly employee before becoming a permanent employee (classified, exempt or tenure track faculty) we begin counting from the start date of your permanent position. If an employee leaves Green River and is rehired, we combine the years of service.
Presentation of service awards will be on Opening Day in September. Over fifty employees will be honored with awards for years of dedicated service to Green River College, ranging from five to forty-five years.
