Posted by: Elizabeth Richardson on May 4, 2021, No Comments

East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania honored 119 employees for their service and dedication during the annual Employee Recognition Ceremony on May 3. This year’s ceremony recognized individuals who have supported the missions and goals of ESU from 10 to 40 years, and achieved their milestones in either 2020 or 2021. ESU did not hold an Employee Recognition Ceremony in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“It is great be able to celebrate and acknowledge such a nice cross-section of campus during this year’s recognition ceremony, and to do it in-person,” said ESU Interim President Kenneth Long. “Some of this year’s honorees teach in the broad range of disciplines across the curriculum, while others provide administrative support services or student services, make sure this campus is in pristine condition or serve the campus by keeping our technology running smoothly. The work by all of these individuals is important for both recruiting and retaining our students and successfully fulfilling the university’s mission.”
