Staff Awards
SEAS Staff Recognition Award
The SEAS Staff Recognition Award is given each year to recognize staff members who have performed
beyond assigned responsibilities, have earned the clear respect of co-workers, have inspired excellent performance from others, have served students and faculty devotedly, and have contributed in an extraordinary way to achieving the aspirations of the School.
This year's winner is Olivia Brubaker, Undergraduate Assistant in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mechanics.
A call for nominations earlier this year resulted in letters from faculty, staff and students across the School expressing their accolades for Olivia all with consistent themes, which spoke of her initiative, ability to resolve complex issues and her utmost willingness to help. One letter stated, "Olivia’s ability to get things done so effectively is closely related to the cordial and mutually respectful relations she forges with colleagues throughout Penn." Another commented, "Olivia is a remarkable individual who combines intelligence, excellent organizational skills and resourcefulness with a friendly demeanor."
