Professor Emerita Nan Amodeo made a generous gift before her death to create a permanent annual award specifically to recognize UMPI hourly-wage employees. Although Nan was full of admiration for faculty, professional staff, and even administrators, she felt that hourly employees were the “often un-praised members” of the UMPI community and that their dedication deserved recognition. This award is presented annually in December.
