UW President Seidel to Host Receptions for Staff Employees of the Quarter

University of Wyoming President Ed Seidel will host two separate receptions for the four 2020 and the two 2021 Staff Employees of the Quarter.

No receptions for the four 2020 recipients of the honor were held due to the COVID pandemic. They will be honored Thursday, July 29, at 4 p.m. in the Wyoming Union Family Room. They are: first quarter, Libby Thorson, sexual misconduct investigator in the Dean of Students Office; second quarter, Tyler Kerr, makerspace coordinator in the Innovation Wyrkshop, located in the Engineering Education and Research Building; third quarter, Jill Aldridge, UW Residence Life and Dining Services contracts manager; and fourth quarter, Daryl Schultz, custodial trainer in Custodial Services, a unit of UW Operations.

The two 2021 UW Employee of the Quarter recipients will be honored at 4 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 11, in the Wyoming Union Family Room. They are: first quarter, Jess Willford, a manager in the LeaRN Program, a unit of the Office of Academic Affairs; and second quarter, Chandelle Macdonald, a master technician in the Stable Isotope Facility in the Berry Biodiversity Conservation Center, which is directed by the UW Office of Research and Economic Development.

Light refreshments will be served at both receptions, and Seidel will give remarks at 4:10 p.m. at the two events.
