Staff Service Awards
Orange Pride Award
The Orange Pride Award recognizes employee excellence among the OSU-Tulsa staff. The award is presented quarterly
to a member of the OSU-Tulsa staff who demonstrates outstanding customer service skills
and efforts above and beyond their normal job duties.
Annual Service Awards
OSU-Tulsa also offers two annual service awards for employee excellence. Both awards recognize outstanding leadership skills, effective communication skills and/or involvement in the community.
The Max Minor Service Award is for staff members who have served at least one year at the OSU-Tulsa campus. Funded
in memory of OSU-Tulsa employee Max Minor by friends and co-workers, the award is
generally given to an Academic Affairs or Student Services staff member who has demonstrated
a commitment to OSU-Tulsa. Other considerations include outstanding leadership skills,
effective communication skills and/or involvement in the community.
The Roberta Joan Cothran Hess Award is awarded for exemplary staff members who work at the OSU-Tulsa campus and was funded
in honor of Roberta Joan Cothran Hess by Dr. James Hess. The award is generally given
to a staff member from one of OSU-Tulsa's administrative services teams--including
Fiscal Affairs, Information Technology, Marketing and Communications, Facilities Management
and Police--who have displayed an ability to excel in their work. Other considerations
include outstanding leadership skills, effective communication skills and/or involvement
in the community.
All OSU-Tulsa employees are eligible to nominate fellow employees who work on the OSU-Tulsa campus. Recipients will be chosen by the Executive Team. Each recipient will receive a $500 cash award and campus recognition.
