Pauline Jenkins was mistakenly left off of the Charles Coleman Service Award Nominee list that was announced during the Employee Fall Luncheon on Tuesday.
Pauline’s Champion was Rosemary Arneson.
“Pauline takes care of all of us in the library, and she works hard to maintain a good relationship with people across campus. By showing that she is willing to meet people halfway, I think Pauline is able to get issues resolved quickly and effectively. She takes the time to listen to people’s concerns, and she is quick to offer an encouraging word. Pauline has a great sense of humor, and she always seems to know when a good laugh is needed.”
Darnel Smith and Zafeer Mobashar were both nominated for the Richard V. Hurley and Rosemary A. Hurley Presidential Commendation Award and not the Coleman Service Award as announced during the luncheon.
