Employee Appreciation Board
The Employee Appreciation Board recognizes outstanding departments/units for going above and beyond their normal work duties to make CSU a great place to learn and work. The board also appreciates the individuals who take the time to nominate a deserving unit.
All employees who nominate a unit will be entered into a raffle for home football tickets. Once a nomination is submitted, the nominator’s name will remain in the raffle pool until his or her name is drawn, or for the remainder of the season (whichever comes first). And, if the unit is chosen to be recognized by the EAB, the nominator will receive a special gift.
To nominate a group, simply go to the CSUEAB website at csueab.colostate.edu and click on “Nominate a Unit.” The deadline to nominate a group is the Monday before every home game:
Monday, Oct. 8
