University Services Human Resources
The Spot Awards is a year-round University Services recognition program that provides timely, positive reinforcement and recognition to University Services team members who contribute significant value to the University by exemplifying University Services’ values through some task, project or action.
Nominations may be submitted by University employees and community members. Anyone can nominate a U Services employee “on the spot” for a Spot Award at any time. Watch the video for instructions.

- Stewardship – Managing people, processes and/or resources wisely
- Integrity – Keeping one’s word, honoring commitments, taking responsibility
- Respect – Treating others as one would like to be treated, displaying good manners, doing the right thing in a reliable way, being considerate of others’ opinions, cultures and beliefs
