The McPherson Award for Excellence, which recognizes excellence and service to the community, was given to Millicent Bond, from Alumnae Relations and Development; Paul Hintz, from Science Support Services, and Tanisha Powell, from Housekeeping.
The Service/Craft Appreciation Award was awarded for the first time. The award was established in 2022 by the family of Professor of English Michael Tratner, who were in attendance. Tratner died from pancreatic cancer in August 2021. In presenting the awards, Director of Human Resources Martin Mastascusa pointed out that Tratner "was an advocate for all staff being treated as important members of the College community." Service/Craft Appreciation Awards went to: Marsadies Lee, Housekeeping; John Michael Kelley, Campus Safety; Charles H. Scales, Transportation; Robert Schlosman, Dining Services; and Robert M. Verdon, Facilities.
