CO Faculty and Staff Recognized for Going Above and Beyond

Every summer, the RVU community in Colorado comes together to celebrate individuals who have gone above and beyond in supporting the University’s mission of providing the most innovative and highest quality education to our students. The Colorado Awards Committee hosted the RVU Employee Awards through a Zoom session. Pre-recorded speeches recognized each winner for their creative brilliance, continuous service to RVU, and for implementing innovative initiatives, all while exemplifying RVU’s Core Values.

Cindy Johnson (top left), Executive Administrative Assistant to the Controller, was recognized as Administrative Support Personnel for her adaptability as RVU underwent significant changes in the past year and for always lending a helping hand.

The Faculty Innovator Award was awarded to Sarah Neguse, MS, PA-C (top middle), Assistant Professor of Physician Assistant Studies, for achieving excellence in multiple areas, taking on additional responsibilities, and utilizing her talent and expertise to create a phenomenal learning environment for students.

Finally, Cassidy Chambers, MPA (top right), Associate Director of Admissions, was recognized with the Staff Award for Excellence for working “tirelessly to create a system that would meet the needs of multiple departments simultaneously.”

Congratulations to Cindy, Sarah, and Cassidy! Be on the lookout for RVU-SU Employee Award Ceremony, which will take place in September.
