The Center for Staff and Faculty Excellence recognizes the exemplary work of the faculty and staff at Quinnipiac. Each year, six distinguished members of our community are honored for their dedication to the university and their significant contributions to Quinnipiac's evolution as the University of the Future. This year’s honorees will be recognized at an awards ceremony this fall.

The Center for Staff and Faculty Excellence serves an important role in supporting President Olian’s strategic plan and its four pillars — to build an institution-wide mindset that prepares graduates for 21st-century careers and leadership; to create an inclusive, excellence-driven community; to nurture and positively impact internal, local and global communities; and to foster lifelong connections and success.
