For the past two years due to the pandemic, Chancellor Philip DiStefano hasn鈥檛 been able to attend one of his favorite events of the year, the student-employee of the year luncheon.
Held each April, the luncheon recognizes the impact the several thousand CU Boulder student-employees have on campus each year. The event also honors the student-employee of the year, as well as other student nominees from across campus.听
Student-employee of the year Hunter Sherraden
This year during a virtual ceremony, the award went to Hunter Sherraden, a senior majoring in integrative physiology who works as a journey leader mentor in the New Student and Family Programs office on campus. Max Gannett, a junior majoring in information science, was recognized as runner up.
The fact that Sherraden鈥檚 nominators described him as a 鈥渉uge asset to our team in the last year鈥� wasn鈥檛 a surprise to the chancellor.听
鈥淲e depend on the invaluable contributions of students like Hunter, Max and all of our student-employees for the efficient and effective operation of the campus, and this year has been particularly challenging,鈥� said DiStefano.听听
鈥淲e hope it鈥檚 mutually beneficial so that student-employees can defray the cost of their education, benefit from connections and community on campus, and perhaps prepare themselves for the job market upon graduation. We couldn鈥檛 do what we do without the help of student-employees, and Max and Hunter are exemplary leaders,鈥� DiStefano said.
