Throughout the year, Staff Senate honors members of the UNCG staff who are making a difference for their office and coworkers, with a long-standing reputation for their dedication to volunteering and service. At the start of 2025, they held a presentation for the Staff Stars of January to be recognized in front of their supervisors.

Staff Senate thanks everyone who shows their commitment to UNCG and invites nominations for the next round, recognizing employees who exemplify kindness, thoughtfulness, helpfulness, or consideration in their daily actions.
