Employee of the Month

Any Lander employee may nominate any full-time staff member by completing the online Nomination Form located on the HR Forms website.  The person completing the form does not have to work in the same department as the staff member being nominated. All nominations will be submitted to the Office of Human Resources for acknowledgement that the employee is in good standing, then forwarded to Staff Senate for discussion and voting. Decisions will be based on which nominee best represents Lander’s Core Values.  

Nominations received by the last Friday of each month will be considered for the following month’s award.

Congratulations to Our Employee of the Month

Matthew Gilstrap​​
​Director of Campus Rec & Intramural Sports
Campus Recreation

Matthew has been encouraging and supportive in bringing wellness initiatives to Lander’s community.  The innovation behind the Student Affairs Lunchtime Crunchtime program shows his determination to promote a healthier campus, and we look forward to seeing that same level of motivation spread to other departments.  He is eager to serve areas outside of his own through his volunteer efforts.
