2023 Supervisors of the Year
Supervisors of the Year
The Office of Student Employment is happy to announce the first annual Student Employee Supervisor of the Year Program! Each year, supervisors across campus can be nominated for their outstanding work with student employees.
A committee will then take into consideration a variety of factors and select one candidate to hold the title of Supervisor of the Year.
Bruce Ziegler
ORIENTATIONHe also allowed for a lot of flexibility during my time here in this role. I think he deserves a lot of recognition for how well he manages all of the orientation leaders and the events that we have had including trainings. Bruce is always understanding when personal situations arise and he makes sure that everyone in our department always has a voice and is recognized. He is quick to respond if needed and is always eager to help problem solve.
Lorinda Lindemulder
BETH - EL UNDERGRADUATE NURSINGShe also makes the work environment fun and exciting and always presents an opportunity to learn. Lorinda is always on top of everything and makes sure to make our needs and feelings as a priority. She is so kind and really considers everything we bring to her attention. She is also very organized and emphasizes team work and helping each other whenever we can. With Lorinda as our supervisor, we always get things done and everyone has their needs met. She’s the absolute best!
Student Employee Supervisor Honorable Mention
Dejah Watson
DINING & HOSPITALITY SERVICESDejah is repeatedly going out of her way to make sure her employees and coworkers have a comfortable, happy work place. I’ve seen her give out goodie bags to coworkers on holidays and is consistently going above and beyond to make sure things run smoothly. She is one of the kindest baristas I’ve ever met and believe she deserves to be recognized for her leadership and kindness.
