The University of Colorado Staff Council (UCSC) recently honored 10 exceptional employees across the CU system with the 2025 Staff Excellence Awards. CU staff members – two from each campus and system administration – received the honors presented annually to recognize those who go above and beyond their job duties and consistently surpass expectations. Each received a $250 award.
