Forty-four employees received the Professional & Scientific (P&S) Council CYtation Award for their outstanding work and contributions in 2022. The 16 individuals and three teams from across the university were honored at a breakfast ceremony March 23 at the ISU Alumni Center.
The CYtation awards recognize P&S employees, particularly those who might not otherwise receive public recognition, who go above and beyond the call of duty, do something extraordinarily well, and act in such a way as to make a real difference in the institution. More information about the recipients is on the council's website.
Council president Jamie Sass, president-elect Patrick Wall and past president Chris Johnsen presented the awards. Jackie Woodin introduced the Woodin CYtation Award, created in memory of her husband and former council member Dan Woodin, to recognize a career of dedication and service to Iowa State. Recipients receive a framed certificate and a gift donated by one of the council's ISU partners: ISU Athletics, ISU Book Store or Reiman Gardens.
CYtation award nominations open in October. Individual awards recognize an achievement within the last two years, and team nominations recognize achievement within the last year.
