Student Employee Recognition Week

Each year colleges and universities across the country recognize the importance of the student work experience during National Student Employment Week. This year Student Employee Recognition Week will be celebrated March 31-April 4, 2008. Brigham Young University has many activities planned. It is recommended that departments recognize the student employees in their area during that week with activities, awards, or other recognition.

Nominating Your Student

Join Employment Services and Student Life in celebrating WASEA's (Western Association of Student Employment Administrators) National Student Employment Week by nominating your most outstanding student employee for BYU's Student Employee of the Year. Each department has many qualified and exceptional student employees, and this is a wonderful chance for them to be recognized for their efforts. The student selected will be nominated for state and regional competition. A printable flyer, detailing the nomination timetable, is available online.

The University will honor all nominees with a certificate of appreciation, and the nominating departments will be encouraged to take an appropriate opportunity to recognize all their student employees as well as their nominated students. Individual departments and supervisors are encouraged to nominate their outstanding student employees for university recognition. Nomination forms are available online for download at the bottom of the page, and will need to be submitted by March 26, 2008. Forms may be submitted by email to kathleen_christensen@byu.edu, or you may send hard copies by fax (422-0640) or mail (Employment Services, 2024 WSC).

To nominate one of your students for state and regional recognition, please submit the nomination form online by 12:00 p.m. on February 28, 2008. The committee will then select one of the applicants to send to the state competition. The applicant selected by the committee to be BYU Student Employee of the Year will be recognized during Student Employment Week, March 31-April 4, 2008.

To be eligible, the nominee must be a BYU student employee that has completed or will expect to have completed at least six (6) months part-time or three (3) months full-time employment during this academic year, June 1, 2007 to May 31, 2008.
