We are pleased to announce that the Arts & Letters Staff Annual Awards program has been refreshed to align with the new NDHR values and to better celebrate the contributions of our Arts & Letters staff.
The updated award categories are Leadership in Excellence, Collaboration, Community & Inclusion Impact, Innovation, and Partnership. Five awards recognize Arts & Letters staff, and one honors a Notre Dame staff member outside the College whose partnership advances our mission.
As part of this update, we invite six to eight staff members to serve a two-year term on the Recognition Committee. Committee members will review nominations for the Annual Awards and provide ongoing feedback to help strengthen the program. We extend our sincere appreciation to past committee members for their dedication to recognizing colleagues' outstanding achievements across the College.
If you are interested in serving on the committee, please email Bridget Fields by Friday, February 20, 2026, to express your interest.
