The Sibylle Sampson Award was established by Sibylle Sampson, a long-time Physics employee and valued assistant to former Chair John S. Toll.

The employee’s undertaking will have benefited the entire Department or a specific unit, and shown creativity, initiative or self-motivation.  Nominees must have been employed within the Department of Physics for a minimum of one year. Two nominators are needed for the Sibylle Sampson Award.

The Staff Excellence Award recognizes employees who excel in job performance, provide a friendly and supportive atmosphere, and display a personal commitment to the Department and to positive workplace morale. Up to three awards may be given.  Nominees must have been employed within the Department of Physics for a minimum of one year.
