The three winners of the 2002 President's Award for Distinguished
Service have nearly 40 years of experience at CWRU among them.
Daniel "Tex" Kelly of printing services, G. Dean Patterson Jr.
of student affairs and Gail P. Shipley of human resources were
honored with the distinguished service awards at the Staff Service
Award Luncheon conducted this month in the Thwing Center ballroom.
 Also
honored at the luncheon were 18 University employees with 25 years
of service and 58 staff members who celebrated 10 years at CWRU
in 2001-2002.
Daniel "Tex" Kelly
Kelly is known for going the extra mile as a bindery specialist
with Printing Services. A 20-year employee of the University,
Kelly is dedicated to customer service. He regularly makes deliveries
in the rain and snow-with a smile- and volunteers to work late
or on weekends in order to complete rush jobs for customers. He
is pleasant and efficient in taking orders and checking on the
progress of projects as well as in bringing much-needed supplies
to all areas of campus. Kelly maintains his good humor despite
tight deadlines and is always willing to lend a hand in completing
jobs.
G. Dean Patterson Jr.
A regular entrant in the University's Martin Luther King Jr.
essay contest and facilitator of diversity workshops, G. Dean
Patterson Jr. is devoted to increasing tolerance and compassion
on campus. The assistant vice president for student affairs "shows
genuine interest and concern for students . . . and (is) optimistic
in the face of crisis or criticism," a student nominator wrote.
A staff member since 1990, Patterson has been active in the University
community for more than 30 years as an undergraduate and graduate
student, a counselor and a nursing faculty member. Patterson also
serves on a variety of University and community committees.
Gail P. Shipley
In her seven years as a benefits specialist at CWRU, Gail P.
Shipley has made a tremendous impact on the human resources department
and the University as a whole. Shipley is a diversity trainer
and contributes to various staff recognition and development programs.
She formed the Wealth Builders Club, is an active member of the
Women's Coalition and its book club and plays a key role each
year in Party on the Quad. In addition, she is a regular volunteer
for the JASON project activities and Parade the Circle celebration
and works with Cleveland adult education programs, teaching English
as a second language, helping people study for GED exams and more.
A long-time member and former chair of the Staff Advisory Council,
Shipley volunteered to create and continues to maintain the SAC
Web site.
