LCSC | Faculty-Staff Recognition 2003

LCSC, State and Nation Celebrate
Employee Recognition Day
May 8, 2003

Knowing that it is right and good to recognize those that serve the public, Governor Dirk Kempthorne signed a proclamation declaring May 8 as Employee Recognition Day in Idaho. The date coordinates with the national day recognizing public employees and, coincidentally, was the exact date on which Lewis-Clark State College held its Faculty and Staff Recognition Social.

The event, which took place at LCSC’s Williams Conference Center, honored those chosen by their peers for having done an exceptional job of teaching, administering, organizing, managing; whatever work an employee of the college has done extraordinarily well and, in so doing, has served the public well.

Individuals honored for excellence in teaching were:
