The University System of Maryland (USM) Board of Regents Staff Awards nomination period is open for 2021-2022. The awards, a Council of University System Staff (CUSS) initiative, are based on the quality of the nominee’s work within their institution, community, or surrounding environment.

If you know a co-worker who goes above and beyond and is worthy of a nomination, please submit a nomination. You do not need to be a supervisor or a manager to nominate an individual. The awards are presented to staff employees who have demonstrated excellence in one of the following categories:

  1. Exceptional contribution to the institution and/or unit to which the person belongs
  2. Outstanding service to students in an academic or residential environment
  3. Extraordinary public service to the University or greater community
  4. Effectiveness and efficiency regarding an academic or administrative transformation with savings of $10,000 or more
  5. Inclusion, multiculturalism, and social justice

Award nominations are due by Dec. 5, 2021. Submit nominations here or if you have any questions, please contact Susan Holt. Thank you to the UMB Staff Senate Board of Regents' Committee for its efforts to recognize our employees and co-workers who are worthy of this prestigious honor.
