"Pitt Is People Power": Long-term Staff Honored for Service

On Tuesday, Dec. 4, Cheryl Johnson, vice chancellor for human resources, welcomed a group of staff to the University’s 30th annual Staff Recognition Awards Ceremony, honoring employees who have worked at Pitt for 20, 30, 40 and 50 years.

“Of course, they started at age 5,” Johnson joked, drawing laughs.

Addressing those in attendance, many joined by their supervisors, Chancellor Patrick Gallagher highlighted what has made it a remarkable year at Pitt, including the opening of the first Community Engagement Center at Homewood and staff volunteer efforts.

“The common denominator in all of these defining accomplishments is people,” Gallagher said. “Pitt is people power, and Pitt employees are at the heart of every success here at Pitt.”

This year, 17 employees were recognized as having served 40 years with Pitt, and two marked 50 years. “Collectively, that’s 780 years of service!” he noted.

Employees celebrating milestone — 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50-year — anniversaries this year included:
