Outstanding Faculty & Staff Awards
It's time to nominate OSUIT employees for the Outstanding Faculty & Staff Awards! Any OSUIT student or employee may nominate an employee from any department.
The objective of the OSUIT Faculty & Staff Council is to ensure that this institution maximizes its human resources, and in the interest of efficiency and harmony, this Association is established for the purpose of providing a forum for dialogue and exchange of rationale between faculty, staff, and those with administrative responsibilities. It is intended such a forum will allow recommendations concerning policies and procedures and effective communication with the administration on ideas that might provide a more positive environment for students, faculty, staff, and administrators.
The Faculty/Staff Council meets on the third Tuesday of each month from 11:30 am to 12:30 pm in the Harlan Room in the Student Union.
