🌟 Xueqin Huang – Workplace Excellence Award
“Xueqin is thoughtful, kind, and has an amazing sense of humour, such that I come to campus in a good mood, knowing that every day I work with Xueqin will be a good day.”
🌟 Patrick Tamkee - The Zoology Golden Donut Award
"This year’s Golden Donut Award goes to Patrick Tamkee, who sprinkles generosity into everything he does, never crumbles under pressure, and proves that the best communities are built by people who give so hole-heartedly of themselves. Pat’s outstanding leadership, never-ending generosity, encyclopedic knowledge of everything aquatic and/or edible, and heart for the department make every day a little sweeter.
Patrick, thank you for being the glue (or perhaps the glaze!) that brings the team together for so many events. Your enthusiasm and positivity makes a real difference, and it's greatly appreciated."
These awards recognize staff who demonstrated outstanding achievement and excellence within the Zoology community and beyond. Awards were presented at the Zoology Summer BBQ/Lunch on August 26.
