Jacobs, Bishop awarded Auggie Pride for April

Please join the Staff Senate in congratulating the recipients of the Auggie Pride Award for the month of April.


Jen_JacobsJennifer Jacobs, assistant compliance director and assistant volleyball coach

Nomination: “I’d like to nominate Jen Jacobs for an Auggie Pride Award because I believe a lot of the work she does within the area of compliance goes largely unnoticed, yet plays a major role in improving our college. I also want to lift up the recent initiatives she has been working on to re-work leadership training for first-year athletes, in addition to the work she has been doing with the Diversity and Inclusion Committee.”


Catherine Bishop, project manager in Academic Affairs

Nomination: “The transition to the new Adult Undergraduate program has required a major effort by staff and faculty. I have heard many comments about how essential Katie’s work has been to the successful launch of the new program. She has provided essential support to the transition. I think she is very deserving of this award and our appreciation.”


The Auggie Pride Incentive Program comes out of Staff Senate’s desire to recognize outstanding staff on a more regular basis (monthly), and tap the collective mind power for great ideas. If you would like to nominate someone or have a suggestion, please go to Auggie Pride submission form or email staffsenate@augsburg.edu.
