JONESBORO – The names of 10 staff members whose contributions and service have been judged exemplary by their peers have been added to the Staff Centennial Wall of Honor at Arkansas State University.
Continuing a tradition that began with the university's Centennial Celebration in 2010, the Staff Senate honored the 10 during the Distinguished Performance Awards and Service Recognition Ceremony.
"The Staff Senate is pleased to give lasting recognition to another group of outstanding staff members," said Madeline Ragland, president of Staff Senate. "A-State employees work hard to provide excellent service to students and faculty. We thank these veteran employees for the many remarkable ways they have impacted our university.”

The Staff Senate Distinguished Performance Awards Committee oversees the nomination and approval process for honoring distinguished staff members.
