LGBTQIA2S+ Faculty/Staff Distinguished Achievement Award

Nominations are open for the LGBTQIA2S+ Faculty/Staff Distinguished Achievement Award!

The President’s Commission for Gender Identity/Expression and Sexual Orientation (GIESO) is creating a new award to celebrate and honor excellence within the LGBTQIA2S+ community at WSU.

Beginning Jan. 18, GIESO will be soliciting nominations for exceptional faculty, staff, or administrators who have provided exemplary contributions to the LGBTQIA2S+ community through the advancement of the work of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Social Justice.

This award demonstrates the institution’s commitment to fostering a more welcoming campus culture and climate and shows LGBTQIA2S+ employees that they are seen and are a valued and vibrant part of the WSU community.

We invite you to submit a nomination by March 4 so that we can honor and celebrate this outstanding individual.
