Beverly Deyo-Svendsen, University Honors Program, has been named the Employee of the Month for September.
The individuals nominating Beverly stated: “Beverly’s attitude is great! She never says no. She’s quick to see the positive in all situations. She is not a naysayer. She is a realist without being negative. She can quickly analyze and assess situations and is always pleasant and wonderful to work with. Beverly was hired as a half-time department associate in the University Honors Program — UHP. Shortly after, the UHP exploded with students and her job was increased to 75 percent. Beverly agreed without hesitation to work the additional hours serving UHP staff and students. She enthusiastically supports the UHP and UW-Stout. She is an ethical, compassionate and honest person who always does her best to meet the goals of UHP. She is an employee students can look to for help, for an ear to listen, for suggestions to grow, and for someone students can count on every day to be in the office. Bev is stellar in all aspects. A job is not just a job to her — she never stops working for the causes in which she believes.”
Nominations can be made by university supervisors, fellow employees or students. The Classified Employee of the Month award, now in its fifth year, was established by Chancellor Charles W. Sorensen to recognize classified employees at UW-Stout.
