"We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit." -- Aristotle
The President's Service Excellence Award recognizes AUB non-academic employees who have shown continuous outstanding performance over an extended period of time and have gone beyond the call of duty in helping students, patients, and fellow employees. Nominees for this award should exemplify the professionalism and courtesy to which we all aspire, and who make this university a better place to work and study in, or receive care from. Since the year 2000, a number of employees have been presented the award in a ceremony to which faculty, students and staff are invited to recognize and congratulate them.
