This distinguished recognition is an annual tradition at VSU, one that recognizes the high standards of service, initiative, reliability, professional attitude, exemplary job performance, and leadership of the university’s dedicated staff.

Wilson joined the VSU Physical Plant and Facilities Planning staff about 25 years ago and currently serves as a highly valued member of the landscape and grounds crew.

VSU: This award recognizes the high standards of service, initiative, reliability, professional attitude, exemplary job performance, and leadership of the university’s dedicated staff. What advice do you have for VSU’s fall graduates and young alumni who wish to demonstrate excellence in their current / future professional roles?

Wilson: Work hard and have a good attitude. I come to work every day and try to set that example for others. Also, manage your time. One thing I’ve always been able to do is manage my time.

As the winner of the Presidential Excellence Award for Classified Staff, Wilson received a framed certificate and a $1,000 cash prize.
